We will be dedicating our newly refurbished fountain with a lighting feature in memory of Connie Moore one of the original founders of Kahn park in the 1980s.
Members of Moore’s family will speak about the impact Moore made on the park and what the park meant to her. Hope to see you there!

The Friends of Kahn Park is so proud of our Little Free Library. On this last day of Banned Books Week, remember you're always welcome to share your favorite stories or grab any book at our free library on the corner of 11th and Pine!

It's Banned Books Week! Have you checked out our new Book Ban Map? We developed the map in collaboration with ALA Office for Intellectual Freedom and PEN America! littlefreelibrary.org/book-ban-map

Find the locations hit hardest by book bans AND the locations of nearby Little Free Library book-sharing boxes. Now you can easily share banned books (or books you hope are *never* banned) in Little Free Libraries!
