Project Overview
Peter Bloedel performed a magic and juggling show for families in our Fire Station Garage. The families were encouraged to visit the library after the show. Peter did a wonderful job of stressing the importance of reading, and how reading helped him become a better juggler.

Families and daycares who have never been to the library before visited the library because they attended Peter Bloedel's show. Also, families who are familiar with the library, spent quality time at the library after the show.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Many of the children checked out materials on magic and juggling because Peter made reading seem fun! Also, many children came to the library to sign up for summer reading after the program.
