(FORT WAYNE, IN) – As students across Allen County gear up for winter break, the Allen County Public Library (ACPL) is rolling out a full slate of free activities designed to keep kids, teens, and families entertained while school is out. During Winter Break, families can explore a wide range of programs tailored to different age groups — from kindergarten through high school — ensuring that everyone can find something exciting to do during the holiday downtime.
ACPL’s Main Library and branches will be open (excluding 12/24, 12/25, and 1/1), offering warm, welcoming spaces perfect for browsing books, discovering new movies and games, or participating in library programs. Whether a child loves art, stories, science, or just a fun reason to get out of the house, the library’s event lineup provides a screen-free way to make the most of winter break.
“Winter break is a chance to slow down, reconnect, and make memories; but it can also leave families searching for free, safe, and enriching things to do. The library fills that gap,” said Beth Boatright, Director of Community Partnerships and Programs. “Our programs give kids a chance to play and connect in a welcoming, supportive, and safe place. We want caregivers to make ACPL their home base during the break.”…
