Youth Services News Summer performers

[Joshua Whitman]

Hello Beth,

This past summer we had Starlit Moments do a virtual storytime program for
us at the Octavia Fellin Public Library in Gallup, NM. Starlit Moments are
a professional character entertainment business based in Albuquerque. They
do princess-themed parties and events. We plan to host them in December for
a Winter Wonderland in-person storytime event. Plus have them come again
for Summer Reading. Everyone loved their Belle and Ariel characters this
past summer.

Here is their website Starlit Moments

Main Contact is Chelsea Berg

Highest Regards,
Joshua M. Whitman
