Loompaland in 2026

For our youngest readers, Irvin Avenue will once again be transformed into Loompaland, which is dedicated to exhibits, activities and performances just for kids to celebrate and encourage reading.  Participants include our own Collingswood Library, Insectropolis, the New Jersey State Library Talking Book and Braille Center, Perkins Center for the Arts, Eat Play Learn/mOTivated kids, Interactive Kids, Seriously Addictive Mathematics and English and other community organizations, who will all have hands-on and/or take-and-go activities and crafts.  We will also have live performances throughout the day by Sara O’Brien of Community Rocks, Miss Michelle of Kids’ MusicRound and other storytellers, authors, and musical performances.
