Walkable Louisville: Creating a Vibrant Future for Downtown

The Louisville Free Public Library’s Main Library is a vibrant community hub offering a diverse array of engaging events and programs for all ages throughout the summer of 2024. From storytimes that foster a love of reading in young children to thought-provoking author talks and presentations on local history and culture, there’s something for every interest.
Teens can enjoy a dedicated space to hang out, play games, and participate in activities at the Teen Lounge or join the Study Café for a quiet, coffeehouse-style atmosphere perfect for hitting the books. Adults can explore new hobbies and skills through gardening workshops, health insurance information sessions, and a knitting and crochet group, as well as make new friends at the tabletop gaming meet-up.
Looking to explore your family tree? Get started with a beginners’ class on FamilySearch, the world’s largest genealogy organization. Gain a deeper understanding of our community through conversations with city planners on neighborhood development and a presentation on the power of historic preservation. Experience beloved stories in new ways with dance performances and movie screenings, and celebrate the start of summer reading with the Cultural Pass Kickoff event.
With a wide range of educational and entertaining programs, the Main Library is your go-to destination for lifelong learning, creativity, and connection this summer. Stay up-to-date on the latest offerings and join us for an enriching experience in the heart of Louisville.
