What fun we've been having at the Kansas Public Library during our Summer Reading Program (SRP) 2026 thus far! We started with a fantastic Jurassic kickoff, and have since then had some amazing programs. Shout out to PAWSitively Wild Animal Encounters, Crystal Bridges, and Cowboy Buck & Elizabeth for already making our summer unforgettable.

The best part? We're still not done! Please join us as we continue our SRP with some amazing upcoming events. Check our page for dates and times, or receive a physical copy of our monthly calendar by visiting the library. We can't wait to see you!
