Enjoy Summer with Arcadia Public Library
June 29, 2020– Arcadia Public Library is offering a surprising array of programming and activities for teens and adults, as well phone, pick-up, and online services this summer. Adults and teens can sign up for summer reading programs by visiting the Library’s webpage and clicking on the “Summer at Arcadia Public Library” tile. Both adults and teens can record the number of minutes they read, while adults can write and submit short book reviews to be entered into the grand prize drawing of an Amazon gift card. Teens can write and submit micro-essays on life during #stayathome to earn points towards their grand prizes, in addition to recording the minutes they’ve spent reading. Adults can also enjoy a virtual “Adult Recess” program, which is available at the beginning of each month.
July’s featured craft is “Sharpie vases,” with August’s craft is paper beads. Visit the Library’s YouTube page or the Events
