Join us for a fun, hands-on messy play session as we celebrate the conclusion of our Summer Reading Challenge, ʻUmeke Kāʻeo! This summer, we’ve been filling our calabashes with wisdom, stories, and discoveries. Now it’s time to celebrate all that learning with an afternoon of creativity, sensory exploration, and messy fun.

In addition to making slime, creating messy art, and exploring sensory play activities, we’re excited to welcome VJ Farm and Services and their petting zoo! Visitors will have the opportunity to meet and interact with guinea pigs, rabbits, a pot-bellied pig, and tortoises.

Come celebrate a summer filled with reading, learning, and imagination. Dress for a mess! We recommend wearing clothes that can get dirty.

Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service for effective communication, or a modification of policies or procedures to participate in a program, service, or activity should contact library staff as soon as possible. Advance requests 48 hours or more before the event are encouraged, but not required. All programs are subject to change.
