About the event

Every family has a story—what’s yours? Join us for a cozy, creative night where families become authors of their own adventures! Together, you’ll fill out a guided family book with fun prompts, drawings, and memories while enjoying tasty snacks. It’s part craft, part storytime, and all about celebrating what makes your family one of a kind!

If you have any accessibility questions or accommodation needs, please contact us at cromero@dconc.gov. We ask that all requests be made at least three (3) business days prior to the event to ensure we can provide the best accommodations possible!

Registration Required. Please register only one family member! Each family will get one book!
