Details

Did you know that the libraries are closed on Monday, June 19th in celebration of Juneteenth? Juneteenth is a very important holiday with deep historic roots, and together we can learn and celebrate this holiday. We will hear a story, engage in dialogue, and create a craft for our Juneteenth celebration. Whether you actively celebrate Juneteenth or are interested in learning about it, all are welcome.

This program is aimed for grades K-5 and will be presented concurrently in person at Central Library and virtually on WebEx Live. 

After completing registration, to-go kits will be available at the MEO Central Library (4100 Virginia Beach Boulevard) a week before the start of the program. Only those attending virtually will be listed to pick up to-go kits. Those attending in person will get their kits on the day of the program. 

Visit the WebEx website to learn how to join a WebEx meeting, and join a test meeting before the program.
