Black Santa is coming to the library! Join us for holiday Story Time, photos with Santa, letter writing, and a sweet treat of cocoa and cookies.

Santa is coming to the library!
Join us for a festive and joyful visit with Santa during a special holiday Story Time at 11:00 AM. After Story Time, families are invited to spend time with Santa—share your holiday wishes, take a photo together, and soak up the seasonal magic.

Kids can also write a letter to Santa and drop it into his special mailbox before it heads straight to the North Pole! To wrap up the celebration, enjoy warm cocoa and tasty cookies with friends and family.

This year, we are excited to welcome Black Santa, celebrating representation, joy, and holiday magic for all. All are welcome at this cheerful community celebration!
