Our Wrapped Up in Reading 2023 book list is now available!

The summer reading program provides suggestions for great books related to our collections and exhibitions and rewards children for reading them. Children who read 5 books from the book list and return their completed reading diary, signed by a guardian to the museum by September 1, will receive prizes and free admission to the Carlos!
