Children will have the opportunity to participate in diverse crafts, including the creation of shiny and sparkling dragon eggs and magical potions.

As part of the events, children will explore various Medieval stories and characters through interactive reading sessions. This approach encourages them to connect with literature beyond the confines of academic requirements, allowing them to discover the joy of reading for pleasure. The emphasis on personalization during themed crafts and storytelling will enable participants to express their unique creativity.
A highlight of the summer programming will be the Reading Roundtable Cinema Craft, scheduled for July 17 from 6 PM to 8 PM.
