The Fulton County Public Library is hosting a summer full of reading, activities, and special events.
This year’s theme, “Unearth a Story,” will focus on dinosaurs, fossils, and archaeology through a variety of hands-on programs and presentations for all ages.
Participants who sign up for the Summer Library Program (SLP) will be eligible for weekly prize drawings. Library patrons can enter by either checking out or returning materials or using library resources while visiting a branch, such as reading books or attending programs.
The library has scheduled several featured programs throughout the summer in partnership with visiting organizations.
Roz Puppets will perform at all three library branch locations on Tuesday, June 30. Showtimes are scheduled for 12:30-1:30 p.m. at Rochester, 3-4 p.m. at Fulton, and 5:30-6:30 p.m. at Aubbee.
