St. Louis County Library events

Celebrate reading at the Little Readers Festival. This free event features a variety of activities and performances, and kids ages 5 and under will receive free books and shaved ice. Activities will be provided by Ready Readers, the Animal Protective Association, St. Louis Cardinals, Nine Network, Florissant Fire Departments, We Stories, and others. Guests will also enjoy performances by Ms. Libby and storytime with Elephant and Piggie.

Your child is old enough to start kindergarten, are they ready? Are you? At this special presentation, both you and your child will get a brief overview of what is expected before your child even enters the classroom. You'll also receive a free backpack and school supplies. Registration is required.

At this free art program for ages 3-6 the focus is on the process of making art rather than the finished product. Both in-person and virtual sessions are offered.

This is your chance for your child to meet one of their favorite book characters!

Enjoy a fun, energetic and interactive musical show from one of St. Louis' favorite children's entertainers: Babaloo!

Your preschooler can stack 'em up and knock 'em down! They'll explore their inner artist as they explore the third dimension with a variety of blocks at this free workshop.

At Artistic Animals, kids will learn the ways that animals display their artistic talents and make some animal-themed crafts to take home. This free workshop is for ages 6-10. Registration is required.
