Library Nights

Contact the Library Committee

To learn more about Library Nights or RSVP, contact Shannon Hilleshiem at library@ketteringpta.org

The Library Committee is  always looking for parents to join the team and bring their special talents to our library evenings. Time commitment is flexible for all volunteers.
Three times a year, our wonderful library committee puts together a very special evening event.
 
Library Nights are designed to stir the imagination and show the library in ways the children haven't seen before. These unique experiences feature storytelling, treats, adventures, sing-a-longs, book checkouts and more. If you've not been to a Library Night before, this is a must-see.

Library nights require an RSVP due to limited seating.  Simply send an email to library@ketteringpta.org to reserve space now.
