Lil' Studio NYPL

November 1st, 2025, 11:00am – 12:00pm

New York Public Library Harlem Branch

9 West 124th Street New York, NY 10027

Come to Lil’ Studio for a joyful session of art, music, reading and play! 


We will begin by looking at Give Us a Poem by Glenn Ligon and then write our own short poems about love and care for our community. Our poems will come to life as we design them using wooden letters and patterned paper. We will conclude by singing songs and reading How to Write a Poem by Kwame Alexander.


Parents, caregivers, and organizations servicing little ones under five years old are invited to the NYPL Harlem Library to enjoy art making and other activities that encourage creative time and bonding.


Lil' Studio is designed to explore innovative ways to work in the community while taking the Museum beyond its own walls. Lil' Studio is free. Click here for accessibility information at NYPL Harlem Library. For more information, or for accommodation, email [email protected].
