Families with children of all ages! Join us for a screening of the live program Stories & Songs at the Compost Café!
In honor of International Compost Awareness Week (ICAW) 2024, the Illinois Food Scrap & Composting Coalition (IFSC) has brought together a group of performers that will, "delight you with a special selection of sparkling tales, sprightly tunes, spoken word, and more. Come along, read-along, sing-along and enjoy an evening to celebrate soil and compost through the arts."
The 1501 Ellinwood Street library building is the realization of a longheld dream of the library board, staff and community partners. Located in the heart of downtown Des Plaines, the four story, 82,000 square foot building represents the community's commitment to reading, lifelong learning, and a center for family activities. A grand central staircase and large windows provide a wealth of natural light and illuminate the building at night.
