Surrey Libraries is thrilled to participate in Public Library Day at the Fair at the PNE. Thanks to a partnership between the Fair and Public Library InterLINK, the public can get a discounted $5 gate admission on Wed. August 23 by showing their Library card! One card must be shown per person to receive the discount and ID is recommended. (The Fair is free for children under the age of 13).
“Like the Fair, public libraries are a favourite place for families to visit, and an essential part of summer in BC,” says Public Library InterLINK Executive Director Michael Burris. “Library Day at the Fair at the PNE provides an opportunity to highlight some of the fun activities that families can expect when they visit their local library; from storytime to makerspaces, there is something for all ages.”
Surrey Libraries will participate alongside InterLINK member libraries in onsite activities from 11:00am through 9:00pm on Wed. August 23. Fair attendees can stopby the library zone near Toon City and Gate 4 for lively activities, or simply, to take a break in the relaxation zone. Members of the Vancouver Canucks will be performing scheduled storytimes at the Toon City Stage and after, will sign autographs in the Library Zone. There will also be impromptu storytimes, maker activities, games, and more!
