The 2024 Summer Reading program at Lewiston Public Library begins Monday, June 24, and will run until Saturday, Aug. 17, at 200 Lisbon St.
The library will have free public events, performers and programs for children, teens, and adults throughout the summer.
For the Summer Reading program, all ages can use a bookmark to track reading and activities for free books and prizes. Pick up a bookmark at the library, complete the activities listed, and turn it in at the library to be entered into our end-of-summer prize drawings. Children and teens also will get to choose a free book to keep for every reading bookmark completed, according to a news release from Sara Turner with the library.
All ages may complete as many reading bookmarks as they wish throughout the summer reading program. Participants are encouraged to not only to read or listen to books but also make a new craft or recipe or explore a favorite place in our beautiful city or a new landmark in our wondrous state. The first 10 participants of each age group to turn in a completed bookmark also will receive a free T-shirt with the Summer Reading logo. Bookmarks are available starting on Friday, June 21.
Summer Reading T-shirts will be available to purchase at the first-floor service desk. Adult shirts cost $15 and children’s shirts cost $10. Various sizes are available while supplies last. Summer T-shirts are supported by the Friends of LPL.
Admission is free to all summer reading events and no library card is required to participate in the reading programs. Prizes must be picked up in person at the library.
