Once Upon Ohio

Celebrate Ohio Children's Literature!
Join us for a fun-filled day dedicated to the joy of reading and storytelling—perfect for young children and families.

Enjoy lively storytimes featuring books by Ohio authors and illustrators, brought to life through songs, rhymes and movement. These engaging sessions help build early literacy skills and support language development in a playful, interactive setting.

Explore the hands-on exhibits at the Ohio History Center, and spark creativity with book-themed crafts and activities—including bookmark coloring, story creation and more!

Kids are encouraged to dress up as their favorite storybook characters!*

*Costumes welcome for children 18 and under. For safety, please avoid masks that cover the entire face.

Tickets go on sale to members July 7 and to non-members July 14.
