Program Description

Woolly Zimowy Zoom Story Time

Join us for a cozy, woolly commemoration of winter in a zimowy (Polish for wintery) Zoom story time!

Ms. Jill and Ms. Alex will sing songs and read books to make this season bright.

Whether you are starting the observance of Hanukkah by lighting the first candle of the menorah tonight, stringing up tree lights two weeks before Christmas, or finding light and meaning in other ways this dark time of year, you are welcome to join us for this inclusive story time of the season and its celebrations.

A related craft packet will be available for pick up by registered participants from Monday, December 7, to Monday, December 14. 

During the registration window for this program, registration can be completed online below or by calling 309.590.6155. Once you've registered, you will receive an email confirmation including the Zoom link to access this program.
