Book Buddies is a FREE literacy program that brings child and teens together to share the joy of reading. It pairs trained teen volunteers (Big Buddies) with children in K-3rd grades (Little Buddies).
Each Wednesday for 10 weeks, Big Buddies and Little Buddies will meet to read together and create positive experiences surrounding literacy. By the end of the session, we aspire that all Little Buddies will learn to love to read and form positive associations with reading.
🎨🖌 Krafty Kids offers a fantastic chance for your children to unleash their creativity while having a great time in a safe and inviting space. Whether it's painting, drawing, sculpting, or other activities, there’s something for every budding artist to delight in.Â

Spring into a new hobby! In this program you will learn about a new hobby every week such as gardening or jewelry making, and get a chance to try out! The goal of this program is to spark a child's interest in learning a new hobby. This program is for children in Kindergarten- 5th grade.
Space is limited; Please pick up your free tickets at the Children's Reference Desk every Monday at 4:00 PM
Discovery Time with Miss Christine is a fun and engaging story time for the whole family! Each week, we build early literacy skills through the five essential practices: singing, talking, reading, writing, and playing.
Activities are thoughtfully designed to encourage learning, spark creativity, and foster a strong sense of community. Through hands-on experiences, children explore the world around them while building skills in speech and language development, music and movement, science, fine arts, and math.
