Story Time

Come to Story Time, a fun early literacy program for kids six and under. Join us for interactive stories, songs, rhymes, and crafts. The early literacy practices featured each week help build a foundation for the lifelong love of reading and learning. For parents and caregivers, Story Time offers an opportunity to experience early literacy strategies in action, discover great books and resources for home use, and socialize with other parents afterward. Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday sessions all share a theme with something new and exciting each week. Sign up is not required. Story Time is held Tuesdays at 5:30 p.m., and Wednesdays and Fridays at 10:45 a.m. in the Staggs Community Room.

Please consult your doctor before starting any new exercise program. Liability waivers are required to participate and are available from the instructor. The class is free and open to adults ages 18 and older. Class is limited to 25 so social distancing can be maintained.

Adult Beginner Guitar Lessons

Received a guitar as a gift and just haven’t had the time to start learning how to play? Bought one a while back and just can’t bring yourself to get started playing? Huntsville Public Library is now offering free beginner guitar lessons twice a month on the first and third Friday from 5 - 6 p.m. During May the classes will take place on May 6 and May 20. These classes will cover the parts of the guitar, strumming, how to use a guitar pick, and basic open-position chords. Lesson plans can be adjusted to accommodate more intermediate players. Participants must complete the online registration at myhuntsvillelibrary.com and bring their own guitar and pick to the class.
