Explore literacy, science, art, and nature all summer long!
Summer Experience encourages children and teens to enjoy books, explore science, and discover new adventures all summer long. There is no cost to participate.
Starting June 13th, children and teens can pick up a gameboard at any ImagineIF location that offers reading and learning challenges, as well as a list of summer programming at the library. Participants can bring back their completed gameboard by August 20th to receive a prize.
