Storytime Begins At Park Police Station!

Today was the first day that we held programs for children at the Park Police Station's Community Room, located at 1899 Waller Street. It was fun to see grownups and kids make their way to the new location - with strollers converging from all directions.

We'll continue to hold our regular Thursday kids' programs throughout Park Branch's renovation!

Baby Rhyme Time every Thursday at 10:30 am
Family Storytime every Thursday at 11:30 am

Come join us in our temporary program space!
