Celebrate Summer at CPL

We're celebrating summer for all ages! Join in from June 21 - August 3.

For children and families

Calling all children ages 0-13 and their families! Get ready to read, create, and have fun this summer. Sign up to participate in the Summer at CPL.

For teens

Participate in Summer at CPL by completing activities on this summer's Pick 4 card. Complete your first 4 activities and visit your local library branch location to win a prize. Every 4 activities you complete will give you an entry in the raffle, and a chance to win the grand prize for your branch at the end of the summer. Report pick 4 activities in person at the library, or using our online form.

For adults

Summer is kicking off with the Go Green Fair, a fun-filled afternoon with eco-friendly volunteer organizations, workforce development opportunities, and music performances and special summer swag. Join us June 25th from 3:00-6:00p.m. at Harold Washington Library Center.
