Meet us at CLP’s Summer Reading Extravaganza, a high-flying, family-friendly outdoor festival for all ages! Enjoy an afternoon of music, activities, crafts, storytelling, food trucks and so much more!
Join us for performances by:
⭐ Featured award-winning author, Antwan Eady! Go on a flight of imagination during his interactive presentation, Q&A and book signing. Free copies of Antwan’s book Nigel and the Moon will be distributed to attendees. (One per household, while supplies last)
⭐ A National Aviary expert, alongside an adorable Animal Ambassador, will present Amazing Adaptations! During this program, designed with children of all ages in mind, discover a bird’s unique characteristics and explore amazing bio facts, such as feet, feathers and beaks!
⭐ Puppets for Pittsburgh will present Aesop's Fables, a small puppet show made entirely from things discarded by libraries.
⭐ SQUONK will create a boisterous outdoor spectacle by fusing fantastical visual design, playful staging, and high-energy original music. Witty and whimsical, Squonk’s Brouhaha performance brings audiences together for a joyful celebration of humankind and our peculiar world.
