Art, Dancing, Stories, and Guitars. . .

Where can you go to hear a story, play a game, create some art, and sometimes even do a dance, all without spending any money?  Well, your local public library of course!  All library locations in the county library system offer some kind of children’s programs at their location.  Many locations offer a weekly storytime activity, as well as other programs intended for children. 

Here at the Waverly branch we offer a preschool storytime on Wednesday mornings at 10:30.   During storytime we read a story, do a dance or some other kind of activity, and create a simple craft.  We also offer a children’s art program every Thursday afternoon at 3:30.  This program is for children in grades kindergarten through the sixth grade.  We create many different kinds of art on Thursday afternoons.  This allows us to learn about a variety of artists and other cultures around the world.  So we get to learn and have fun at the same time!  Registration is not required for either of these programs.  We would love to have you join us for a story or art activity this week! 

This month we have a special program intended just for music lovers.  On Saturday, September 27^th, the Waverly branch will host the Beatles' Memories and Memorabilia program.  All ages are welcome to attend this program that starts at 2:00.  Ron Hawkins from the Reporter Times will share memorabilia he has collected over the many years that he has been a Beatles fan.  There is even a rumor that Chuck, our branch manager, may bring his own guitar!  There is no charge to attend this event, and registration is not required.  Please join us on the 27^th and see what Chuck will do with that guitar!

We are always open to adding new programs for all age groups, so if you have some particular activity that you would like to see offered here at our library branch please let us know!  We are here to serve you and we love to try new things! 

Check the library’s event calendar posted on our website to see the specific programs that are offered at each library location.  We have a lot of fun things going on for all age groups at our library and we hope to see you soon!
