Summer with Your Library 2023: All Together Now!

We are thrilled to present an exciting lineup of events and activities designed to bring our community together in a spirit of togetherness and exploration. This summer, we invite you to join us for a series of engaging programs that foster connection, learning, and fun for all ages.

Our “All Together Now” theme embodies the idea that the library is a place where individuals of all backgrounds can come together to share experiences, discover new interests, and forge lasting connections. With a diverse range of events and activities, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

For our youngest community members, we have Storytime in the Park and Storybook Strolls where children and families can embark on imaginative journeys through captivating tales. Craft workshops encourage creativity and allow kids to express their unique personalities through hands-on projects. We also host special family-oriented events where parents and children can bond over games, challenges, and collaborative activities.

Teenagers are invited to join our ACLS Discord channel, where they can connect with peers who share similar interests. From book clubs to gaming tournaments, our teen-focused events provide a platform for self-expression, discussion, and the cultivation of new friendships. In the future, we’ll be hosting workshops on various topics empowering teens to explore their passions and develop new skills.

For adults seeking intellectual stimulation and opportunities for personal growth, we offer thought-provoking book discussions and workshops on a range of subjects and activities. Engage in lively conversations, expand your knowledge, and connect with individuals who share your love for learning.

In addition to our regular programs, our “All Together Now” summer calendar features special community-wide events that celebrate the diversity and vibrancy of our town. Festivals, live music, and outdoor events a platform for neighbors to gather, enjoy entertainment, and build connections that extend beyond the library’s walls.

To stay updated on our “All Together Now” summer events and activities, please visit the library’s website and subscribe to receive emails. We encourage you to bring your friends, family, and neighbors along for an unforgettable summer filled with camaraderie, learning, and discovery.

We can’t wait to welcome you to the “All Together Now” Summer at the Allegany County Library System. Together, let’s create cherished memories and build a stronger, more connected community.

See you soon!

Summer Reading Programs were originally designed by public libraries to help elementary-aged students avoid summer learning loss by encouraging them to read. Our Summer Reading Programs have grown to include programs and prizes for all ages-tweens, teens, and adults, making it a true community-side, family -friendly program. In our community, the libraries have become more important than ever. We touch the lives of so many members of the community and strive to help even more.
