First Saturday Fun @ the Library!
Take your family to the library the first Saturday of every month! (In June 2013, it’s the second Saturday!) Enjoy fun, free activities with your family.
On June 8, 2013, Kalamazoo Public Library, Kalamazoo Public Schools, and the NAACP and the NMA will sponsor First Saturday, from 1-4 pm, at the Central Library Parking Lot, 315 S Rose St.
Kalamazoo Public Library has planned a party in the Central Library parking lot to celebrate June Jubilee! Kalamazoo Public Schools, the NAACP, and the NMA will be there to help us celebrate and sign up summer readers for a summer full of reading and prizes! We'll party with a bouncy house, obstacle course, concert and drumming circle. Learn more...
