We are sorry to announce that the traditional Children’s Festival will not take place this July. During these uncertain times, the health and well-being of all must be first and foremost. The Storytelling Guild remains committed to bringing the magic of our beloved Festival to families in creative ways this summer. We have an exciting plan to supplement the Jackson County Library summer reading program, which will be announced at a later date. The magic and spirit of Children’s Festival is not to be underestimated! In fact, instead of a traditional Children’s Festival, where families come to us at the Britt Gardens, we are working on ways to bring the 54th Annual Children’s Festival to them. Our theme this year is “Once upon a Time” and we look forward to many special Children’s Festival stories for 2020. Stay tuned for more on this soon!
The Storytelling Guild will also continue to support our mission to share the joy of reading through Pass the Book, Dial-a-Story, online storytimes and more.
