Martin Luther King Jr. Day

We will be observing and celebrating Martin Luther King, Jr. Day at the Takoma Park DC Library this Saturday, Jan. 15. Beginning at 2 pm, families can head to the children's room for a special Martin Luther King Day story time.  Afterwards, join us for a craft and cake to celebrate the legacy of Dr. King. 

Here's a list of items you can check out of a DC library near you to celebrate at home!
(Takoma Park has most of these on the shelf - ask us if you need help or want to order a copy.)
