Babies and toddlers up to age 2 with an adult are invited for an introduction to the concert harp and to explore connections between language and music. They'll learn to identify contrasting sounds and understand that musical concepts bring stories to life by communicating feelings and emotions.
This program will be led by Arts for Learning teaching artist Melissa Gallant. Registration is required for each child. Parents and caregivers need not register themselves.
The second county branch in the library system opened in 1967 as the Westlane Branch in the Westlane Shopping Center on North Michigan Road. In 1974, the library purchased 2.76 acres on Zionsville Road from MSD Pike Township for construction of the current 13,000-square-foot Pike Branch that opened in 1986. Its design was cited by the local chapter of the American Institute of Architects. The branch was remodeled and expanded to 20,000 square feet in 1999.
