New Story Time Programs in the Youth Center

Happy Fall! We hope that everyone is enjoying the season and has settled into the new school year. The Youth Center has been busy planning fun new programs for you and your family. We have Booker's Alley Story Time Wednesday mornings at 10.30. This is a great time to share fun stories, songs and rhymes with preschool aged children, though all ages are welcome. This program is held in the Youth Center's Discovery Theatre.

Families are invited to join us in the Youth Center Reading Pavilion Tuesday evenings for Bearly Bedtime stories at 6.00. Here we will read a few stories before bed. Pajamas optional! And...don't forget to introduce yourself to Cody, our new giant teddy bear who lives in the Pavilion's window seat!

Additionally, on weekends we have started Story Time On Demand. Whenever you visit the Youth Center on Saturdays and Sundays, ask us for a story and one of our librarians will be happy to read you one of their favorite books.

We always have crafts to create in the Art area, so be sure to come visit!
