Harmony Hill Puppet Theatre will be visiting the library next Saturday (6/10) for a puppet making kid’s program! Starting at 10 AM, children will be introduced to the puppet making process and later shown how to put on their own puppet shows at home. Best of all, everyone will have the chance to create their very own sock puppet to keep!

This is a free program put on in partnership with the Northumberland County Council for the Arts that will give kids the chance to really get creative and in touch with their imaginations. All materials will be provided onsite but children MUST be signed up ahead of time. Space is limited to 25 so be sure to reserve a slot before we’re all filled up!

Ease into the coming summer season by joining us at the library for Heart & Soul Chair Yoga with instructor KymBre Shingara! Held most Monday mornings throughout the coming month, sessions run from 8:15-9:00 AM with doors opening at 8:00 AM.

Classes are $7 a piece or $15 for all three June sessions. To sign up, you can either visit us at the library or give us call us at 570-648-3202. All adults and abilities are welcome!

Just a reminder that the library is offering our patrons this fantastic new opportunity! The Museum Cultural Pass program is part of Lewisburg Children’s Museum’s “Count Me In” initiative and provides free admission to the museum.

The Cultural Pass waives all admission fees for the whole family (4 people max, children under age 2 always free) at a time. Passes are valid for general admission only and do not cover special events/programs, classes, or workshops hosted at the museum. The pass can be checked out for 1 week and then is to be promptly returned to the library just like you’d check out and return a book. Please be sure to return the pass in a timely manner so that as many families as possible can take advantage of this wonderful opportunity to explore, learn, and grow!

Keep up to date with everything happening at your local library this June! Printed event calendars are readily available at the front desk along with handouts that include additional information about upcoming programs and events.

As a reminder, the library will be closed tomorrow (5/29) in observance of Memorial Day. Our regular hours will resume Tuesday (5/30) with doors opening at noon.

As always, keep an eye out for upcoming events for children, adults, and families throughout June and the summer months to come!

Jesse, who is one of our top and most frequent puzzle piecers, celebrated his 40th birthday yesterday! To join the festivities, we thought we’d help him celebrate at a place he spends so many of his mornings and afternoons doing something he loves. Happy Birthday Jesse! 🥳🎂🎉

We would like to thank Lorena Kutza and Shayla Nowakoski of Great Dane for volunteering at the library this morning! Lorena and Shayla took on a lead role during our weekly Preschool Storytime & Movement program by reading “Can I Join Your Club?” by John Kelly.

In addition to reading the story, our volunteers also donated coloring books and crayons on behalf of Great Dane. Thank you again to our volunteers and Great Dane’s thoughtful donation of coloring materials!

Thank you to Bloomsburg Theatre Ensemble for bringing a performance of “Park Protectors: The Story of the Buffalo Soldiers and the National Park Service” to our library this morning!

Audience members were treated to the young talents of BTE performers Brian Bond, Gabe Moses, and Meagon Williams as they brought the story of the Buffalo Soldiers to life along with this often overlooked time period’s historical significance and its lasting legacy. Once again, thank you to the talented performers and the BTE organization for all that you do!

**REMINDER** Join us at the library tomorrow (5/20) at 11 AM for a free performance by members of Bloomsburg Theatre Ensemble! The featured show is “Park Protectors: The Story of the Buffalo Soldiers and the National Park Service” and will take the audience on a historical journey through the beginnings of our country’s beautiful National Parks.

We would like to thank everyone at Tiny Tech Preschool for hosting an extra special story time with us today! We read “Dog Gone” which is a book all about making new friends. After our story we sang and danced, crafted dog puppets to take home, and of course wrapped up with a yummy snack. Once again, thank you to the folks at Tiny Tech for inviting us and we hope to see you all again next year!
