“Unearth a Story” & Summer Kickoff Event coming to Western Sullivan Public Library 

Posted

SULLIVAN COUNTY – Get ready to “Unearth a Story” this summer with special programs for all ages at the Western Sullivan Public Library. From story times to special performances, from Nature Art and Family Movie Nights to an outdoors End-of-Summer Dino Bash, there’s fun for everyone at the library this summer! Unearth the past, dig into our community history and crack open lots of great books, with programs and workshops for all ages. Readers can also stop into any branch in Callicoon, Narrowsburg or Jeffersonville to pick up a WSPL Library Passport for a chance to win prizes all year!

Kick off the summer on Tuesday, June 30th at 10am with a Dinosaur Hunt Safari, a special performance at the Delaware Youth Center by children’s entertainer David Engel. Embark with the zany Professor Livingpebble (Engel), on an adventure to dig deeper into your library than ever before. Attendees can also pick up a goodie bag including a copy of our Summer Program with a full schedule of activities. This project is made possible with funds from the Statewide Community Regrant Program of the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature and administered by Delaware Valley Arts Alliance.
