Summer Reading Club is in Full Swing!

Welcome, Summer Readers!


It's not too late to join us at the Summer Reading Club. You can pop-in to the library at any point this summer to pick up your reading record.


We're doing fun crafts and activities all summer. So far, we've made pop-up dragons, sketched volcanoes, and created dragon marionettes.


In addition to daily crafts - we run a special drop-in craft party every Wednesday at 1-2 p.m. Next Wednesday, we'll use our detective skills to locate and uncover the cause of a forest fire (made up of course!).


Plus, mark your calendars for our upcoming special workshops: 


  • Thursday, July 18th at 2:30-3:30 pm
  • Free art workshop with Meneka Repka, the illustrator for our Summer Reading Club.
  • Register here.
  • Thursday, July 25 at 1-2 pm.
  • Meet fantasy novelist Aurora Winter.
