Fall is for Families

By Brittany

Just because summer reading has ended doesn't mean all the fabulous and fun family friendly programming has ended. If anything it's just getting started. From September to November the Lewiston City Library has a bevy of free, no registration required, activities for families.

September:

Mobile Museum: Thursday September 25 from 4-7pm. Lew on the Go at Hereth Park. If you loved our fossil show-n-tell last month, then you're going to love the Idaho Museum of Natural History's Mobile Dinosaur Exhibit. You'll get to step inside and take a walk through prehistoric Idaho with all sorts of fossils, dinosaur bones, and other exciting hands-on activities.

October:

Family Artwark Saturday: October 4th 11am-2pm in the Large Event Space on the second floor. Join us for drop in events with local artist Linda McMillan who will be doing face painting and current artist Dawn Norman for a watercolor painting class for kiddos and adults!

November:

Wild Night at the Library: Monday November 3 from 5:30 to 6:30 in the Large Event Space. Come learn about local wildlife with Idaho Fish and Game! A part of Idaho Family Read Week: Stories Under the Stars. All ages welcome.

If you're still looking for more, and who isn't, there's Wiggles and Giggles Storytime every Wednesday from 11am-11:30am starting September 17th in our upstairs Event Space. We also have our popular G0enre Quest gearing back up in October. Read a book from the genre for the month and earn a super cool button!
