The Casa Grande libraries are making a splash this week with a series of events that cater to all age groups and interests, ranging from book fairs to gardening talks. According to the latest announcement from the City of Casa Grande, the Main Library and Vista Grande branches are the places to be for residents looking to add a bit of learning and leisure to their summer days.
One of the headliners of this week's lineup is the Book Fair and Free Book Giveaway. This event rewards kids who have put in time completing their reading logs, pushing forth the message that diligence in literacy comes with tangible rewards. Another highlight is the Color Our World Character Event taking place on July 12 at 2 p.m. at the Main Library, where imaginations are set to run wild with live character visits.
For those with a green thumb or an interest in sustainable living, a Master Gardener Talk is scheduled for July 12 as well, starting at 10:30 a.m. at Vista Grande providing insights and tips for budding and experienced gardeners alike. Adults aren't left out of the engaging library programming—a Wind Chime Craft Workshop is slated for July 17, though registration is required, signaling the library's continued commitment to offering diverse activities.
And for individuals eager to learn at their own pace, there are Free Online Courses via Universal Class. An array of subjects is accessible with a library card, offering knowledge in everything from Excel for beginners to digital photography. To assist further, there's 1-on-1 Tech Help available by scheduling online; this personalized support can make all the difference for residents navigating our increasingly digital world.
Support services continue with GED & Study Support through the Excel High School Info program, aiding those looking to complete their high school education or seeking study assistance. In a place as communal and open as the library, opportunity sits on every shelf and in every conversation. The Main Library can be visited at 449 N. Drylake St., and Vista Grande is located at 1556 N. Arizola Rd., ensuring accessibility for Casa Grande residents.
