This summer, step into a world of imagination, color, and creativity with a vibrant transformation of the Children’s Room! The hue-riffic transformation will be for a limited time. 

Whether it's painting a planet, doodling a dream, or diving into a colorful book, the space is where imagination knows no bounds. From crayons to canvases, stories to sculptures, every corner encourages innovation. Be sure to stop by, get inspired, and explore before the excitement ends…

The Library is open Tuesday from 9:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. and Wednesday - Saturday from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Be sure to register for the children's, teen, and adult summer reading programs, which run through July 31.

The Artventure experience is generously funded by the Highland Park Quality of Life Foundation and features original artwork by local artist Amber Williams, https://www.amberwilliamscreative.com.
