Programs
Wainwright Public Library strives to provide quality programming for all ages. Our programs require pre-registration that can be completed through our Events Calendar.
Storytime
Storytime is an hour filled with stories, rhymes, songs, crafts and fun for 3-5 year olds. The program helps build the early literacy, listening and group participation skills required for successful school entry. A different theme each week provides an introduction to a variety of picture books. Children attend the program “on their own” and begin taking the important first steps of independence. *While this program is geared towards ages 3-5, younger children are welcome to register and participate as well. Children under the age of 3 will require a parent/guardian to stay.
Pre-registration is required using the Events Calendar.

HeroQuest
Deep inside another dimension, face battling barbarians and evil magic on a quest for adventure in a maze of monsters. HeroQuest is a fantasy adventure game, where winning means mastering the art of combat and magic.
HeroQuest is Milton Bradley's approach to a Dungeons & Dragons-style adventure game. One player acts as game master, revealing the maze-like dungeon piecemeal as the players wander. Other players take on a character (wizard, elf, dwarf, or barbarian) and venture forth into dungeons on fantasy quests. Plastic miniatures and 3-D furniture make this game very approachable.
Join Brett Gooding as he acts as your game master on Thursdays starting at 4pm. This program will run every Thursday for 60-90 minutes.
*Open to Grade 7 and up.
HeroQuest will start this fall after Thanksgiving.
