Kids’ Programs
Programs at the Medfield Public Library
All programs are FREE thanks to the generosity of the Friends of the Medfield Library. Programs are generally held upstairs in the Children’s Room or downstairs in the Meeting Room. During the warm months, some programs may be held outside in Warrior Park. Advance registration is required for certain programs, due to space and supplies being limited. Feel free to contact us for more information.
Please see a list of recurring events below, and see the full calendar here. You can filter to events for children by selecting “By Category” > “Kids”.
