Events & Classes

Join us at Kenton Park to celebrate National Bike Month in this special storytime featuring books, songs, and activities with a bike theme!

Storytime will take place near the playground along N. Delaware Avenue at N. Arlington Place.

Free kids' bike lights for attendees while supplies last. 

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 birth - 1) with board books, toys, music, and all the room your baby needs to learn through play. As Mr. Rogers said, "... for children play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood."
