HEPL on the Move

By Lori Holewinski

A public library is so much more than a building. One big takeaway from the Covid-19 pandemic is that people continue to connect with their library even when they can’t come to the building. This summer HEPL will be out and about outdoors to make programs and resources even more accessible.

Look for the HEPL logo at farmers markets in Fishers and Noblesville on selected Saturday mornings beginning in May. Some Saturdays you will be able to spin the library “Wheel” to win small prizes. On other Saturdays you can participate in a community art project led by Ignite Studio @ HEPL’s summer Maker-inResidence, Boxx the Artist.

HEPL @ the Park will begin on the first Friday in June. Park visits will be from 10:00 am-1:00 pm at a variety of parks throughout Noblesville and Fishers. At the park, you can participate in a special activity designed for each park, complete a park scavenger hunt to win a small prize, learn about the Tails and Tales Summer Reading Program for all ages, and check-out materials at small pop-up libraries.
