Winter Reads In February, adults (18+) can read or listen to books, write reviews, and enter to win prizes during the library’s Winter Reads program. This year we will feature multiple online author visits as well as a new activity kit, while supplies last. Art & Poetry Mash-Up A kit of visual arts will be provided by Carver County libraries, which you then combine with poetry from our shelves or from your heart. Pick up your kit at your library location in March, then return your finished mash-up to be displayed in celebration of Arts in April.
Carver County Library Storytimes Storytimes are an early literacy experience where we sing, play, write, talk, and read together. Toddler storytimes take place on Mondays at 10:30 a.m. with preschool storytimes at 10:30 a.m. on Tuesdays, 10:30 a.m. on Wednesdays, and 3:30 p.m. on Sundays. Baby storytimes are Thursdays at 10:30 a.m. Bring your complete, gently used puzzles to swap for new-to-you puzzles for a night in with your sweetheart. Stick around to play tabletop games with other fans of all ages. These programs are made possible by a Charles J. Dahlke grant. No registration is required.
