Kick-off the Summer with lots of family fun!

Adventure is out there, and it's in your local library! Join us for the 2024 Summer Reading Kick-Off at the Argenta Plaza (510 N Main St, North Little Rock). Bring the whole family to enjoy performances, games, giveaways, food, and more. This year we are celebrating the adventures we can find all around us. Together with many local organizations and businesses, you can explore all that Central Arkansas has to offer. Discover native animals, learn how to care for our environment, meet some new furry friends, watch musical and dance performances, and start your summer off right!
