Hub Club

Looking for something to do with other adults this Summer? Once a month the Hub Club will meet with our staff member Jan up at the Hub and hang out. Want to play a game? Do a craft? You can help curate ideas for the group. This is a drop in program.

Jumbo Games

Join Julia and Lisa outside for some Jumbo games like corn hole, connect 4, jumbo bowling etc. This is a drop in program and you can find us on the grass to the south of the Library.

School Bus Story Time

Join Port Hope Public Library and Century Transportation for a fun school bus storytime. We will read some stories about busses and then we get to take a little tour around and maybe sing a song! Thanks to Century Transportation for providing a bus and driver for this event!! This event requires pre-registration as seats are limited. Please email registrations@phpl.ca to be added to the list.

Big-Screen Gaming Afternoon

Come and get out of the heat and play some big-screen video games using our PS4 and Nintendo Switch game consoles. Julia and Lisa will have a selection of games that we can take turns playing on two stations. This is a drop-in program. DID YOU KNOW... we are creating a video game collection so you can borrow from our Library using your library card (just like a book), starting this September!?!
