Michael Forestieri, renowned storyteller in Delaware, will again tell us about our world through stories.  Summer reading would not be complete without a visit from Michael.

 

14August Thursday evening 6:30 PM

Our final program for the summer will be a dinner theater.  The Show will be “Puss and Boots” performed by the Rehoboth Summer Children’s Theater.  For this particular program audience members will have to sign-up and be issued tickets.  Only participants (and their escorts of course) of the Delmar Summer Reading Program may sign up as space is limited. 

 

All of our programs are interesting for all ages.  Adults, you are invited to come in and join the fun.  All you need to bring is your young-at-heart self.  Just a reminder, all Delmar Summer Reading Programs are free of charge.  We want everyone to enjoy reading and the programs.  If you need more information call the library 302-846-9896.  Talk to Pam.
