Celebrate the end of Summer Reading and get your TBR (to be read) stack ready for fall! 

This program expands your art and reading horizons through a fun color-mixing activity! Choose a favorite book or two from the library shelves or bring a couple favorites from home. We will create new tints and shades that you can take back to the shelves and use to find a new book whose cover includes that color! All materials will be provided, just bring yourself, a friend, and a couple of your favorite books.

Be sure to stop by your local library starting on June 14 and grab your tracker for Summer Reading 2025: Color Our World! Question(s)? Contact Raivynn at raivynnsmith@dconc.gov
