Illustrated flyer for “Storytime on the Side Porch.” Pink and green pennant banners hang across the top, with grass along the bottom edge. Text reads: “Storytime on the Side Porch – Thursdays in June from 3–4 p.m., 1119 Pinehurst Street.”
Join us this June for Storytime on the Side Porch at Eudora Welty House & Garden as we explore this summer’s theme: Small Wonders, Big World!

Each Thursday at 3 p.m., we will discover the little things that make a big difference through picture books, hands-on activities, crafts, and visits from special guests in our community.

Designed especially for kids in grades K–5 and their caregivers, this free program takes place on the Welty House Side Porch and in the Welty Garage, with plenty of time to read, create, and explore together. Attend one session or join us all month long—no registration required. Just bring your curiosity and a sense of wonder.
