Join us at Patterson Library this summer as we explore visual storytelling.
How do wordless picture books tell a story? Why do we love graphic novels? What is “manga” and “anime,” anyway?
Let’s play, draw, read, and tell some stories together this summer #atthepat!
Adult Summer Reading will be a Book Bingo card to complete at your own pace between July 5th and August 12th.
Pick your bingo card up at the front desk starting June 27th!
Our events span 6 weeks, from July 4 – August 12.
Sign up for adult programs at the library or by calling the library at (716) 326-2154.
