This summer, the Chanute Public Library invites readers of all ages to unleash their creativity with the 2025 Summer Reading Program, “Color Our World.”
Running from today, Tuesday, May 27, through Saturday, July 19, the program encourages children, teens, and adults to discover stories that inspire creativity while engaging in hands-on art experiences, such as watercolors, spin art, string art, calligraphy, painting and collage-making, jewelry making, and more. From picture books filled with bold illustrations to biographies of trailblazing artists, this program offers something for everyone.
“We are so excited about the theme. We believe stories and art have the power to brighten lives and build bridges between people,” Library Director Jeana Lawrence said. “On an important note, we plan to host many of our programs at different locations around Chanute this summer while HVAC renovations are ongoing.”
