Preschoolers ages 2 - 6 are invited to learn about frogs with puppets, stories and songs. Professor Watermelon will show how these slippery amphibians live in and out of the water! This program is made possible by Friends of the Library through gifts to The Indianapolis Public Library Foundation.
The Spades Park Branch was built with funds from a $120,000 grant by the Andrew Carnegie Foundation and opened in 1912, six months after the opening of the city’s other remaining Carnegie Library, the East Washington Branch. The 7,500-square-foot branch underwent a $610,000 renovation in 1987 and celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2012.
