North Birmingham Library Family Nights Kicks Off June 3

During the month of June, the North Birmingham Regional Branch Library is hosting a new series of family activities called North Birmingham Family Nights. There will be a light dinner at 6:00 p.m. with information and fun for the hour afterward.

The programs kick off on Monday, June 3, and is among more than 400 free programs for kids, teens, and adults being held from June to early August as part of the 2019 Birmingham Public Library Summer Learning.

North Birmingham Library's programs, all being held on Monday nights between June 3 and June 17 at 6:00 p.m., are designed to help students avoid “summer learning loss," a phrase referring to when students lose knowledge gained during the preceding school year while on summer break.
