2024 Summer of Learning
Welcome to the 2024 Summer of Learning! The Library has offered summer programs for Seattle youth since 1919—this summer will be our 105th year of summer your programming!
Free to Read!
Everyone’s story is important! It is not fair to you and your family when other people try to make rules about what you can and cannot read and learn about. Your reading decisions should be made by YOU and the adults who take care of you! By sharing and reading many different stories, we learn about new things, new people, and new experiences -- that makes our brain bigger and smarter! So celebrate your freedom to read all summer!
About the Artists
The Library and four local artists – Nick Alan Foote, Cecelia “Mousy DeVilla” DeLeon, Deycha Nhtae and Kela Wong – collaborated on artwork for the Summer of Learning.
