All events are free and open to the public. Children under 10 must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
Storytime
Join us Thursdays at 10:30 for a song, a story, and a craft! All ages are welcome.
Children of all ages and attention spans are welcome! Storytime is an extremely casual program meant to get kids familiar with the library and to hopefully contribute to a love of books, stories, and reading.
If your child cannot sit still for stories, that is perfectly fine (and perfectly normal!). Bring them anyway!
Santa Mail (Opens Wednesday, November 26)
Mail your letter to Santa at the library! Include a return address to get a response from Santa. Letters must be mailed before December 19 to ensure a response. Stamps are not necessary.
Sensory Friendly Santa Visits
Santa Storytime
Santa and Mrs. Claus are coming to town! Join us at 10:00 am on Saturday, December 13, in the Library Community Room for our annual Santa Storytime. We’ll sing Christmas songs, read Christmas stories, and do a few Christmas crafts. Santa and Mrs. Claus will arrive at around 10:15 am to meet all the children! Each child will have a chance to meet our guests, sit on their laps, take photos, etc.
This is not a drop-in event. Santa and Mrs. Claus will stay until all children have left.
Family Movie – Home Alone
Join us in the Community Room for popcorn and a family movie! We’ll be watching Home Alone, which is rated PG. Water cups will be provided, but personal water bottles are highly encouraged. All ages are welcome and children under the age of 10 must be accompanied by an adult the entire duration of the film.
Dial-a-Story
Dial-A-Story is intended for all ages. From toddlers to older adults, anyone can dial in to hear stories read aloud by the children’s librarian or other library staff!
The only thing you need to use this service is a telephone. Dial-A-Story can be accessed 24 hours a day, free of charge, by calling 541.624.6339.
