Summer Events

 

Storywalk®

A Storywalk® is an innovative and delightful way for children — and adults! — to enjoy reading and the outdoors at the same time. It promotes early literacy, physical activity, and family time together in nature.

The StoryWalk® Project was created by Anne Ferguson and developed in collaboration with the Kellogg-Hubbard Library in Montpelier Vermont. Storywalk® is a registered service mark owned by the Kellogg-Hubbard Library.

This very special event is for the participants of the "Color Our World" Summer Art 2025 Reading Program. Plus, kids will get to paint on the Program Room Wall, so please wear clothing that you don't want to get dirty. Open to the Families of Emerson Only Entering Grades PreK-6.

Registration Required. Register ONLY if your child/children have attended an event and/or logged books or minutes online. Register each child separately.

Registration Opens August 1st at 10am!
