We're celebrating the beginning of the Summer Reading Program AND the Indianapolis Public Library's 150th Anniversary!
Celebrate the start of summer! We'll have a visit from some wild animals with the Silly Safaris' Meet-n-Greet, crafts, snacks, activities, prizes, and more!
Silly Safaris will be at Wayne from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Crafts, etc. are all day long while supplies last.
Make sure to sign up for the Summer Reading Program while you're here so you can have an astronomical time reading all summer long (and win even more prizes along the way!)
The Wayne Branch Library first opened in December of 1969 in a shopping center located at 7341 Rockville Road. Due to high demand, the storefront space was enlarged in 1973, but the need for more space was evident. A permanent 13,500 square foot location opened in 1984, and the branch remains in that same building today. The Wayne Branch underwent a $1.1 million renovation in 2020 to add more seating and activity space, study rooms, and a quiet reading area, but still features the split design of a separate children's and adult wing.
