2022 CHILDREN'S PROGRAMS
We are now, as of April 2022, returning to in-person children's programming! In addition to planning these regular gatherings, Miss Erin, our Children's Librarian, is recording and posting these story times on YouTube and Facebook.
We are also offering monthly Take-and-Make crafts and activities for you to do at home with your children!
- Weekly Picture Book Story Times with songs, basic concepts and stories. - A new one is posted every Wednesday at 1:00 pm.
- Daily Chapter Book Story Times - A new chapter is posted Mon-Fri at 5:00 pm.
