Join us for a special sensory-friendly hour at the library, held before public hours.

This dedicated time is designed to offer a quieter, calmer library experience for children, teens, and adults with sensory sensitivities, along with their families or guardians.

The library will be open only to registered participants during this hour, providing a safe, low-stimulation environment to browse, read, use the computers and explore before regular public hours begin.

Do you LOVE science? Join TAG volunteer Alex to learn science concepts and participate in cool experiments! All are welcome, but this program is best for grades 3+. No registration required.

Visit our table for books and crafts (while supplies last) to learn about and celebrate Shanah Tovah!

Kids and tweens can stop by for a relaxing after school project and create a beautiful paint-by-sticker image.  For kindergarten and up.

This program has been cancelled. We apologize for any inconvenience.
