Reading Colors Your World StoryWalk

Enjoy the afternoon at McGraw Park while taking a stroll as you read We’ve Got the Whole World in our Hands by Rafael López (Scholastic, 2018). This free event will get the whole family out and active!

Attendees will also learn about the programs Bloomington Parks, Recreation & Cultural Arts Department and Bloomington Public Library will be offering this summer. Additional organizations set up along the StoryWalk® and offer information about their Summer activities/programs. Take-home activities will also be distributed.

StoryWalks® have been installed in 50 states and 14 countries, including Germany, Canada, England, Bermuda, Russia, Malaysia, Pakistan and South Korea! StoryWalk® was created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, VT and was developed with the help of Rachel Senechal, Kellogg-Hubbard Library. The Bloomington Public Library and the Bloomington Parks, Recreation and Cultural Arts Department are pleased to offer this cooperative program. 

This event will take proper COVID-19 precautions: hand sanitizer station, face coverings are required for all families, and families will be asked to respect social distancing. Thank you.
