See a Magic Show featuring Magic Wes!

The Lewiston Public Library will be hosting Magic Wes and his show Reading is Magic in Callahan Hall on Thursday, July 10th at 5:30PM for all ages.

Join us for this fun-filled show where books come to life with mind blowing magic, teachable moments and engaging storytelling. Kids won’t just hear a story-they will experience it! By making reading feel magical, Wes inspires children to pick up more books and rediscover the joy of reading.


The 2025 Summer Reading program at Lewiston Public Library runs from Monday, June 23rd until Saturday, August 23rd with the theme of Read, Make, and Explore.

We are encouraging participants not only to read or listen to books but also make a new craft or recipe or explore a favorite place in our beautiful city or a new landmark in our wondrous state. Come by and pick up a summer reading bookmark, fill it out and return it for your chance to win a prize. Bookmarks are for children, teens and adults!


Reading is Magic is free, open to the public, and no registration is required.


The Lewiston Public Library is located downtown at 200 Lisbon Street at the corner of Pine Street.

More information on summer reading programs is available by contacting the Lewiston Public Library at 513-3133 or LPLKids@lewistonmaine.gov.
