Eventos y Clases

Children from birth to age 6 (with a favorite adult) enjoy books, songs, rhymes and movement activities in English with American Sign Language interpretation while building language and literacy skills. 

Attendance is limited and available on a first come, first served basis.

Multnomah County Library storytimes are supported by gifts made to The Library Foundation.

Play and learning go hand in hand. While our storytimes are on break, join other families for a fun playtime (for ages 2-3) with books, toys, music, and all the room you need to learn through play. As Mr. Rogers said, "... for children play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood."  

Central Library, beloved by the community since 1913, is now open with modern enhancements for you to enjoy!

Join us for a 45 minutes walking tour through the building.  No registration required.

Join us for a fun and imaginative LEGO building session. We'll provide the building blocks, you bring the creativity! Ideal for grades K-5, but younger and older siblings are welcome. 

This class introduces the concept of poetry and writing with La Toya A. Hampton, aka The Poet Lady Rose, by using stories, music, and activities. Exploring themes such as growing up, self-esteem, feelings, and friendship together makes this a perfect class to meet new friends! The best age groups for this event are from Kindergarten to 2nd grade, or kids 5 to 7 years old.
