This summer in the Loft has been seriously buzzing with activity. Hundreds of teens have visited the library to check out books, participate in our many programs (like creative writing workshops, booktalks, and theatre rehearsals), and give an impromptu chat with one of the staff about a fantastic recent read (or write an online review).
But maybe you haven’t made it out yet? Maybe you’ve wanted to participate, but the summer has slipped right past yo u? There’s still time! The last day to participate and be eligible for one of our weekly prizes (and to be entered in our end-of-summer grand prize drawing) is this Saturday, August 8th. Attend one of our last three summer programs and/or submit an online review and/or tell us in person about a book you recently read and/or…you get the picture. Click the Summer Reading! tab at the top right of this page for information about submitting last-minute book reviews or read below for more information on our remaining summer programs in the Loft.
The remaining programs (you can still sign up!):
