Designed to help children develop their visual and verbal literacy skills, Artful Storytime is a partnership with the St. Joseph County Public Library. Each Artful Storytime includes stories, songs, artwork explorations, art-making, and more! We’ll be reaching for the stars this month as we explore cosmic creations! This program is best for families with children ages 4 to 6. Parking is available in the Visitor Lot immediately north of the Sculpture Park for a fee during the week (before 4:30 p.m.). Free two-hour parking is available in the Eddy Street Commons Parking Garage or along Angela Blvd. After 4:30 p.m. and on weekends, parking is free and available in any non-gated lot. If traveling via South Bend Transpo, take the No.7 bus and use the stop for Eddy St. Commons (at the intersection of Angela & Eddy St).

This series is a successful partnership bringing a tradition usually found in large city centers to this thriving urban environment in the heart of South Bend. Screenings are free to the public and held at the Gridiron at dusk (approximately 9:30 p.m. – weather permitting). Viewers are invited to bring their picnic blankets, chairs and snacks. Themed pre-movie activities begin at 7:00 p.m. Click here for more information.
