GP Summer Reading Kick-Off Party

Join us for an exciting double-header of events to kick off summer fun and reading! First, celebrate the GP Summer Reading Kick-Off Party at the library with activities for all ages, including snacks, live family-friendly music, craft stations, and opportunities to register for the Summer Reading Program. Enjoy giveaways, earn raffle tickets by checking out books, and indulge in free Kona Ice while meeting Bluey for a photo op. Additional food vendors will be present, and activity stations hosted by the Children's Museum and Josephine County Food Bank will offer engaging experiences for everyone.

Then, head over to the Herb Pharm Botanical Garden on Saturday, June 13, for a special Storybook Walk during the annual Picnic in the Garden event. This outdoor reading experience invites families to stroll along a path and read selected short stories written and illustrated by local children. The stories are inspired by the prompt, “One day, I planted a magical seed and…” and showcase the creativity of young authors from across Josephine County.

Don't miss this opportunity to celebrate reading, creativity, and community! For more details on both events, visit the provided links.
