Story Time In The Gardens
September 3, 2024 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
**LOCATION CHANGE** Now at the Aiken Visitors Center and Train Museum
The City of Aiken Parks, Recreation, and Tourism Department is pleased to announce the return of Story Time, a cherished reading program that promotes literacy in our community’s youth. The fall season begins on Tuesday, September 3, 2024, at 4:00 PM and continues every Tuesday afternoon in September and October.
Story Time is free to attend and is held on the grounds of Rye Patch, located at 100 Berrie Rd.
Parents are encouraged to bring a lawn chair or blanket, snacks and drinks are welcome. Families will receive a free book to build their home library at every reading session. In addition, families are encouraged to bring used books from home to help stock the Little Free Library in Hopelands Gardens. The Little Free Library, installed in April 2017, is a free book exchange that further encourages the mission of Story Time.
In the event of inclement weather, Story Time will be held inside the Rye Patch Reception Center.
