DC Public Library Foundation

Like DC itself, DC Public Library has a lot going on this June.

All month long, DCPL is hosting conversations with journalists, historians, graphic novelists, legal analysts, and storytellers whose work spans Pride, Father's Day, America's 250th anniversary, and the realities of climate change.

Some highlights:

June 3 — Seven Million Steps with Christian Gregory, a youth author talk celebrating fathers | Lamond-Riggs/Lillian J. Huff Library

June 4 — Bromantasy! with Máire Roche and Thien-Kim Lam | MLK Library

June 11 — Literary Village: Sixteenth Street NW | Mt. Pleasant Library

June 13 — COMICTROPOLIS: Miles Morales and Me | Southwest Library

June 20 — COMICTROPOLIS: Between the Comic and the Controller | West End Library

June 30 — Mike Tidwell on The Lost Trees of Willow Avenue | Cleveland Park Library

Plus a Father's Day open mic, a summer kickoff, and more — at library branches across the city.

Free. Open to the public. No library card required to attend.
