Summer Reading Wrap Up
Our 2025 Summer Reading Program has come to a vibrant close — and what a season it’s been!
Over the summer, 1,207 participants logged an incredible 1,245,321 minutes of reading, filling our community with imagination, discovery, and creativity. From exciting weekly reading challenges to hands-on art workshops, readers of all ages came together to explore new stories and celebrate the joy of reading and art. This shared passion for books and learning truly made our world more colorful.
While the Summer Reading Program has ended, the library’s calendar is still packed with opportunities to connect, create, and explore. Visit our events calendar or sign up for our email list to keep the inspiration going all year long.
