Saturday Live! @ Central Library

Saturday Live logo Join us every Saturday in the Central Library's Youth Services department for events featuring puppets, magicians, wild animals, storytellers and more!

This literacy-based program selects performers for both their entertainment value and their ability to promote the joys of reading and libraries to young audiences. Families can enjoy a wide range of multicultural programming including puppetry, magic, live animals, storytelling, music and much more.

Saturday Live! events begin at 11:15 a.m. The library opens at 11 a.m.
