Children’s Programs

Join us as Robert Forbes shares excerpts from Addison Mizner Visionary Architect in the Children’s Library. This family program will include a book reading, Mizner-inspired arts & crafts, a blueprint planning station, and refreshments.

Story time at the library is a wonderful way to capture the imagination and introduce your child to a love of reading. The Children’s Library offers free story time programs, specially designed for children. Preschool Story Time is for children 4 years of age and younger and is available most Mondays and Thursdays at 10:30 a.m. from October through April. All Children’s Library story times are thematic with stories, shared songs, and arts and crafts projects addressing the program’s educational theme.

Family Story Time is for children 8 years of age and younger and is available at 10:30 a.m. two Saturdays a month, November through April. An arts and crafts activity will follow each story time.

The Children’s Library offers a monthly cooking, art and floral design classes on select weekdays for school-age children in Kindergarten and up. There is no charge to attend weekly school-age programs, but reservations are required, and space is limited.

This program is designed for independently reading school-age children (and their families).  Book Clubs further develop literacy skills and encourage not only the sharing of thoughts and opinions but respect amongst readers. 

The hour program will include 3-4 thematic crafts and participants will be guided through all activities. Craft Club goals are to increase fine motor skills, creativity, patience, cultural awareness, coordination, and confidence in participants.
