Join us for our recurring program, Saturday Smarties (1st and 3rd Saturdays of each month), for a block party!
Join us for Saturday Smarties at College Ave, a time just for school-age kids (ages 6-12) to hang out, be social and creative, and try new things, every 1st and 3rd Saturday. For this meeting in June, we'll be having another Block Party! This time, we'll go beyond Legos and experiment with different kinds of blocks to explore themes of structure, strength, and shelter. Can you build the strongest structure of them all? (Please do not bring your own Lego/block sets; we will provide everything you'll need!) Registration is NOT required, just encouraged!
Established as the Broadway Branch in 1924, the library served the neighborhood from a frame house on E. 42nd Street until 1958 when a 6,500-square-foot facility opened on Broadway Street. This aging and overcrowded building was replaced in August 2000 with the current 16,000-square-foot structure on College Avenue that was renamed the College Avenue Branch.
