We had a wonderful time welcoming local schoolchildren to the Riverfront Arts Center for Story Time! Our young visitors enjoyed listening to spooky stories and sharing some of their own. It was heartwarming to see each child’s personality shine through their creativity and storytelling. We love seeing children feel comfortable expressing themselves, letting their imaginations run wild, and sharing their unique ideas with others!

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make this such a great turnout. We look forward to welcoming you back for our next Story Time in November! Please note that our October Story Time is canceled.

This free program takes place on the last Wednesday of each month (not October 2026) from 11:30 am to 12:30 pm and invites children to explore the gallery in a fun and welcoming environment.

Young visitors will enjoy engaging stories, learn about gallery etiquette, and participate in hands-on crafts, all while surrounded by the inspiring artwork of our current exhibition.

Local children's book authors are also welcome to join us and share their stories, we can't wait to see you in November!
