Our Butterfly Walk

Reading, signing, and activity

Little bookworms are invited to join author Lisa Cassman on Saturday, May 10th from 10:00-11:00am for a reading of her children’s book, "Our Butterfly Walk”. Perfect for little explorers, this delightful book reads like a scavenger hunt, encouraging children to step outside and discover the wonders of nature all around them.

Sliding scale, pay what you can! Prior registration is required.
