Welcome to our Empathy Day Festival, a celebration of kindness, creativity, and connection taking place across our local libraries. Throughout the week, we’re bringing people together through a range of activities, from Kindness Bookbug sessions and storytelling to crafts, creative workshops, and mindfulness drawing. Whether you’re joining with family, friends, or on your own, each event is a chance to understand others, share experiences, and build a stronger, more compassionate community.
