Following their successful presentation in January, Aston Library brings back Puppets Pizzazz with a brand new show for summer: “Get Ready, Get Set, READ!” Puppets Pizzazz has successfully entertained children of all ages for over twenty-six years. The Puppets Pizzazz show is full of sing-a-longs, slap stick humor, audience participation, and dancing. Everyone will be tapping and singing along to our satirical versions of songs by artists such as Disney, Neil Diamond, Meghan Trainor, LMFAO, Carley Rae Jepson, Pharrell Williams, Pit bull, Black Eyed Peas, Neon Trees, Maroon Five, Britney Spears, and Taylor Swift to name a few! This free program is part of our “On Your Mark, Get Set, READ!” summer programs for the kids. There is a free program each Wednesday at 1PM for the kids. Children will also be awarded a prize each week if they read something and record their reading on the program web site- http://tinyurl.com/AstonSRP16

Summer Programs will be at American Legion Hall

The Summer Wednesday programs for the kids will be held at the American Legion Hall at 3220 Concord Rd (just a few buildings down from us on Concord) until further notice due to a problem with the air conditioning in the gymnasium of our building.

Thanks so much to the American Legion for donating the use of their Hall to help us out when we needed it!
