KFPL offers spooktacular Halloween events this month

This October, the Kingston Frontenac Public Library (KFPL) is holding a series of spine-tingling events and activities ready to get you in the spooky spirit of the season.

“When it comes to celebrating Halloween, the library is where you’ll find the most ‘boo-tiful’ stories and ‘skele-fun’ activities,” said Brianne Peters, Children’s Services Librarian with KFPL.

In a media release, the library said everyone should prepare to be delighted by the following eerie offerings:

Haunted Canada Author Night with Joel A. Sutherland

Renowned author Joel A. Sutherland takes you on a journey through Haunted Canada on Saturday, Oct. 21, 2023 at 2 p.m. at the Calvin Park Branch.

P.A. Day Programs

Calling all young goblins! Don’t miss our Pumpkin Wreath Take Home Kit and Hallowe’en Dance Party during the October 27 P.A. Day

Not-So-Scary Hallowe’en Family Storytime

Bring your little pumpkins to this special seasonal edition of Family Storytime on Saturday, Oct. 28, 2023, at 10:30 a.m. at the Calvin Park Branch. Enjoy a mix of Halloween stories, songs and rhymes. Costumes are encouraged, so bring out your scariest or silliest attire.

L’heure du conte

Venez vivre une superbe activité en français à la bibliothèque! C’est une excellente façon d’introduire les enfants aux contes en français, de stimuler leur créativité avec le bricolage de décorations de potirons, et de les plonger dans l’esprit d’Halloween avec une histoire passionnante. C’est une activité amusante conçue spécialement pour les enfants de moins de 6 ans. Ce programme est offert en partenariat avec le Conseil des écoles catholiques du Centre-Est.

The library asks everyone to ‘creep’ in touch — stay connected with them on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and their website at https://www.kfpl.ca/ for information on programs throughout the year. “We promise not to ghost you!”
