Summer Reading Program
Hope Shiver illustrates through story and song the life of famous abolitionist Sojourner Truth. Her sensitive portrayal, often using Sojourner’s own songs and speeches to bring the story to life, inspires participants to learn how laws are made and to explore the plight of slaves in the North while clapping and chanting to the familiar spirituals of the time. Performance topics include the abolitionist movement, the women’s movement, the Civil War, and President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation. Tickets required and will be available 30 minutes before the performance begins.
Come learn about a local animal rescue’s work creating a safe space for our amazing wildlife neighbors and meet some colorful animal ambassadors! Tickets required and released 30 minutes before the program begins.

Join us for the show presented Express Children's Theatre - Shy-a-saurus Rex!
In the bustling town of Roarsville, every dinosaur gets to shine in the annual Dino Day Talent Show—except for Shy-a-saurus Rex, a timid young T-Rex with stage fright and a soft voice that barely makes a squeak. Though she has a big imagination and a heart full of dreams, Shy-a-saurus is too nervous to share her talents.
