Join us at the library for an interactive, open play group for parents and caregivers with infants and toddlers. Early childhood specialists will be available for questions and guidance.
This open play group is co-hosted with Porter County Community Foundation/First Things First Porter County and Help Me Grow Porter County. First Things First is a community effort that supports families, healthy beginnings and quality early experiences so that every Porter County baby has the best start in life. Parents are their child’s first teacher – come and help your baby learn!
Valparaiso Public Library is the largest branch of the Porter County Public Library System and sits just one block off of downtown Valparaiso. It was first developed in 1905, renovated in 1916, and demolished in 1994 in favor of the building in its place today. Acting as a pillar of communities both local and county-wide, the library offers an extensive collection of materials to its patrons, a wide variety of programming, large study rooms that can accommodate 100 people, and the Larry Clark Genealogy Center, which has been a staple in Porter County for almost 60 years.
