✨ Welcome to Black History Month Storytime! ✨
Join us for a special storytelling adventure—one filled with brave heroes, brilliant creators, powerful voices, and big dreams. Black History is not just history from long ago—it’s a story that’s still being written every single day, and you are part of it.

As we read today, listen closely for stories about courage, kindness, creativity, and community. You’ll meet people who used their voices, their talents, and their hearts to make the world a better place—people who look like you, people who believed in themselves, and people who never gave up.

📖 Storytime is a place where imagination grows, questions are welcome, and every child belongs. We’ll read, talk, maybe even move a little, and celebrate the beauty of Black culture, history, and joy.

So let’s get comfy, open our ears and our hearts, and remember:
Your story matters. Your voice matters. And your dreams matter.

Now… are you ready for a story?
✨ Let’s read! ✨

About the branch

As the hub of the Indianapolis Public Library system, Central Library showcases renowned architecture and services. The original 1917 building, designed by Paul Cret and constructed of Indiana limestone in the Greek Doric style, was considered one of the most outstanding secular buildings in the U.S. Its six-story glass and steel-framed addition, designed by Evans Woollen, opened in 2007.
