On April 19 at 10 a.m., the Oxford Public Library will host its 4th annual Precious Prom for children! Toddlers – second graders are invited to this high-society event, which takes place during school vacation. Plus, for the first time, the prom will feature a live musician: Mr. Gym!
Mr. Gym is a physical education teacher who plays energetic songs that rock! When he starts singing, kids can’t help but boogie down! (And based on his past shows at our library, he makes parents – and this librarian – want to dance too!)
Attendees are encouraged to wear formal attire. And don’t forget a camera!
Registration is not required, but it is requested for this FREE prom. To RSVP, call the library at 203-888-6944.

Many of our young patrons love telling stories as much as they love listening to them. Here’s a chance to put their imaginations to work!
On January 12, the library’s free Winter Writing Program for preschoolers – fifth graders will begin!
Program participants will receive blank books in which they can write and illustrate their own stories. New authors who create a book by February 23 will receive a prize. Plus, their stories will be recorded on video and posted to the library’s website.
Registration is required and will continue throughout January.
Happy writing and illustrating!
