The celebration will also feature gaming in Teen Central; balloon artist and magician Nate the Great will make amazing balloon animals; children can meet storybook characters “Elephant” and “Piggie” from the popular book series by Mo Willems; and hands-on activities and crafts will be available in the Sutliff Museum located on the second floor of the library.

Regular hours will begin at the Warren Library on Monday, August 22. The library will return to its pre-pandemic operating hours of Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.; Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.; and closed on Sunday.
