Color our World - Summer Reading Program has begun! Sign your family of young readers up today.
Come on in to the Library to sign up for the program, each youth sets their own reading goals for the summer, will keep a reading log at the library, and receives reading incentives (prizes!) for having reached their own goals. We have scheduled programming and special events each Wednesday and Saturday all the way through July 26th! You can view the schedule below. We have a great series of events - Youth Night at the Opera, Archaeology on the plaza, bilingual books walks, and more!

This FREE program is a FUN, educational, multi-sensory approach to early childhood literacy, designed for families with children ages 0-5, accompanied by a caregiver, but ALL ages are welcome! Each gathering takes place in our Community Center on Wednesday mornings, 10:30am - 12:00pm.
We will come together in a safe, welcoming space each week to dance, play, sing, rhyme, craft, explore science, practice letters, and enjoy stories read aloud. Above all, Caterpillar Club is an opportunity for kids and their families to have FUN together while learning the basic skills of early childhood literacy. Exploring the sounds, rhythms and the stories of language is a rewarding experience for everyone!
Here at Caterpillar Club we want everyone to know that they belong as soon as they walk through the door! We are excited to be a small part of your child’s early years of discovery. After the program, you are very welcome to gather in the orchard and enjoy connecting with other local families w/ children under the apple trees. Please join us!
The Library is hiring! The Library is looking for an Afterschool Coordinator for the 2025/26 academic calendar year. Please view the attached job announcement for details. If you have any questions, just stop by, call, or email enquiries to jenniferg@embudovalleylibrary.org.

Families, kids of ALL ages, community members... please come and join us as we welcome Dixon's own Elena Osuna, who will lead a guided Flamenco Dance Workshop! Flamenco in Northern New Mexico is a thriving art form with a unique, homegrown character, with its own distinct sound and style, deeply rooted in the region's history and cultural identity.
Elena Osuna has performed widely nationally and internationally at a variety of venues including Alegrías in New York City, The Fountain Theatre with Gabriel Lautaro Osuna/ Encuentro in Hollywood, La Cueva de la Rocío in Granada, Gitanerias in Mexico City, the Tucson Flamenco Festival in Arizona, and Festival Flamenco Alburquerque. In addition to her work as a performer, Osuna teaches flamenco at the National Institute of Flamenco’s Conservatory of Flamenco Arts and Spanish at Tierra Adentro of New Mexico Charter School of Academics, Arts and Artesanía.
PLEASE NOTE: This will be our last Summer reading program date, so update those reading logs young readers, so that you can can be entered in the grand prize drawing on the day of this event. The prizes will be awarded by August 2nd.
