Friends of RPL Community Room

Join the Rockford Symphony Orchestra at the East Branch Library for a special musical storytime series designed for young children and their families!

Through this unique partnership, we are bringing stories to life using live music, rhythm games, and interactive sounds. Each month, professional musicians will join our library staff to explore a new musical theme, introduce children to real instruments, and foster an early love for reading and music. Come sing, clap, and read along with us!
