Summer Book Fest & Little Free Library Opening (Aug 17)

August 17 - 11am-2pm

Minnesota Humanities Center - 987 Ivy Ave., St. Paul, MN 55106

Join us for a summer celebration of books and storytelling as we open our new Little Free Library. Community partner Little Free Library (LFL) will be on hand to share more on how you can start your own LFL or bring your own books and participate in an LFL book share. Local authors Dr. Artika Tyner, Ty Chapman, and Monica Rojas will give readings of their children’s books; musician and storyteller Ms. Rose will lead a musical storytime; we’ll have story strolls, a scavenger hunt, book giveaways, prizes, and more! In addition, local favorites La Michoacana Purepecha and Eggroll Queen will be selling their treats and eats for you to enjoy. Bring your family, friends, and neighbors to enjoy the magic of books together on MHC’s front lawn.

Free to attend, no registration required. In case of inclement weather, events will take place inside the MHC event center.
