This event will introduce children to the Arabic language through story, a sensory activity, and a puzzle-based activity. Children will also have the opportunity to create a decorative lantern used to commemorate Ramadan, an important month for many Arabs around the world.

The Fairview Shores Branch first opened its doors in 1950 as the College Park Branch at 703 Smith Street. The branch moved several times over the next four decades. In 1997, the branch opened as the Edgewater Branch at its last home at 5049 Edgewater Drive in the Northgate Plaza. This location served the neighboring communities for approximately 22 years and is now expanding its reaches to the wider surrounding communities as it transforms to the new Fairview Shores Branch.
