From the Children's Room

Hooray for Spring! April brings to mind many of our favorite things here in the Children’s Room -- National Poetry Month, National Library Week, April Vacation, Earth Day, and El Día de Los Niños/El Día de los Libros. On a more serious note, it is also Holocaust Remembrance Month. We’ll be celebrating and reflecting in turn, and we would love to have you join us.

Celebrate art with Saori weaver Bayda Asbridge on April 5th or with graphic novelist Jamie Buckmaster on April 11th and April 25th. Celebrate diverse heritages with storyteller Laura Partridge on April 12th or during our day-long festival for “El Día” on April 30th. Celebrate the Earth during school vacation with the DPW&P on April 22nd (Earth Day!), a marigold planting on April 23rd, and our second annual Rustic Petting Zoo on April 24th.

 

We celebrate the library every day, but during National Library Week, April 13-19, we will have a special photo booth, and we want you to help us spread the word (psst...the word is read!) Drop by and have your picture taken!

 

All programs are free and open to the public. For more details, including ages, times, and registration details, keep an eye on our calendar and on Facebook. We hope to see you in April!
