Calendar of Events

Martin County's Childrens Librarians love to read, but they also love to sing and dance! Join us for a story and early literacy activities.

According to Every Child Ready to Read @ Your Library, singing, talking, and playing are also important for developing early literacy skills. This interactive event may use bubbles, scarves, hand-held instruments or shaker eggs, loud music, and more. All adults are encouraged to participate with their children in this fun early literacy activity. Families are welcome!

The Baby Café is a place for moms and pregnant women to receive one-on-one as well as peer-to-peer support during their breastfeeding journey. A lactation consultant is available as well.

An open game play for players of all levels with an understanding of the basics.

The National Mahjong League current card and rules will be used for a 3- to 4-handed play. Bring a current card and set if you have one.
