Summer Playlist from Rochester Public Library
Jumpstart your summer with the Summer Playlist from Rochester Public Library
May 31, 2024 – ROCHESTER, MINN. - Rochester Public Library (RPL) invites kids, teens, and adults to read, connect, relax, explore and find joy this summer with the Summer Playlist program June 1-August 31.
“This year Summer Playlist is focused on taking time to experience the season, prioritizing self-care, and exploring nature, books, or hobbies,” says Heather Acerro, Head of Youth Services at RPL. “We hope that participants will put themselves first and design the program that best meets their needs – whether that is learning something new, taking a nap, or enjoying a favorite activity.”
Summer Playlist starts Saturday, June 1. Participants can find activity playlists in six languages through August 31 at the following locations:
- Downtown building, anytime the library is open
- At the Bookmobile
- At the BookBox at Fire Station 4
- On the Library’s website
Once you have your playlist, you just need to color in the book graphics as you complete activities that fall under the following categories: Reading, Exploring, Finding Joy, Connecting, and Relaxing. Once you’re done – just return your playlist back to the Library or the Bookmobile.
Those who complete this year’s program by 6 p.m. on Saturday, August 31, will receive a 2024 Summer Playlist bookbag and have an opportunity to share their completed playlist in a community art display and printed 2024 Summer Playlist book.
