2025 WALA Holiday Party!

Monday, December 15th
5:30-7:00 p.m.
Westlink Branch – Wichita Public Library

It’s potluck, so bring your favorite finger foods or desserts. I think several of us are planning on bringing something “on a board or tray” charcuterie style. We will also continue our wrapped book exchange! Bring a wrapped book…elephant gift or something you read and loved…your choice!

Summer Event

Hey all!

I’d love to see all your wonderful faces at the WALA summer event. We’ll meet up at the Wichita Art Museum on Saturday, July 12th at 11:00 a.m. for their FREE Family Artventure: Picture This: A Day of Art + Play. Enjoy artmaking, music, and free admission to the Gordan Parks photography exhibit. WAM is also hosting a mini used book sale the same day!

It’s a family friendly event that goes until 4 p.m. Stay as long as you are able! Bring the whole family!

I hope to see you there!
