Summer Reading Kick-off Day

Kick-off  is bursting with fun events for children, as well as a starting point for teens and adults to start logging their reading progress for prizes and raffle drawings.

Kids’ events include:

  • Professional juggler Mike Vondruska, who will perform tricks in the Kids’ Library from 10:00 AM to noon, and 1:00-3:00 PM.  
  • Face Painting and Henna, an ancient Indian body art that illustrates the hands with detailed and delicate patterns. 
  • Puppets on the Wilder Side—a favorite of all, young and old—performing at 10:30 AM, 11:30 AM, 1:30 PM, and 2:30 PM. 

This summer, travel the world without leaving city limits. Elmhurst Public Library’s Summer Reading theme is “One World, Many Stories,” and brings rich culture, exotic locales, and flavorful stories right to Elmhurst.  The program continues through August 13.
