Denbighshire Libraries are participating in the 'Marvellous Makers' Summer Reading Challenge with free activities for families starting from 6 July 2024 until the end of September.

This summer, children can visit any Denbighshire Library to join the 'Marvellous Makers' Summer Reading Challenge, firing up their imaginations through the power of reading and creative expression.
In partnership with Create, a leading arts charity, and public libraries, this year's Challenge celebrates kids' creativity and storytelling abilities. Children will be encouraged to explore new books and stories while taking part in free activities, from arts and crafts to games and more.
The bespoke Challenge artwork is illustrated by celebrated artist Natelle Quek, bringing the 'Marvellous Makers' theme vibrantly to life. By reading books and collecting incentives young readers can foster their creative thinking skills over the summer break, more details to be found on Denbighshire Libraries’ social media channels.
