Cairns Libraries and First 5 Forever are excited to be popping up from 10-20 May at Court House Gallery as part of the Cairns Children’s Festival!
Families are welcomed to come along and explore our little library for little people, where they will use their imagination to become the authors of their own stories.
The Pop Up Library encourages free creative play though with access to an engaging selection of library resources that is sure to have kidlets immersed in their own imaginative space.
Also, don’t forget to join us for some very special ‘bear’ themed Storytime Sessions:
- Wednesday 10 May at 10am
- Wednesday 17 May at 10am
Plus, a bonus Storytime Session for Australian Library and Information Association's (ALIA) National Simultaneous Storytime:
- Wednesday 24 May at 11am
Be sure to bring along your favourite bear so they can join fun!
We can’t wait to see you to talk, read, sing and play at our little library.
Parental supervision required.
First 5 Forever is an initiative of Queensland Government, coordinated by State Library of Queensland and delivered in partnership with local government.
