About Library in the Landscape: Nature Sanctuary

Library in the Landscape welcomes young minds to enjoy live storybook reading and hands-on art making amidst nature’s beauty. Set in the heart of the Sculpture Park, this program invites children and an accompanying adult to immerse themselves in a blend of storytelling and creativity.

With curated readings by Lincoln Public Library Children’s Librarians and hands-on activities inspired by the stunning sculptures of Nature Sanctuary, children are encouraged to connect with both literature and the environment. It’s an interactive experience designed to spark imagination, foster curiosity, and inspire a love for both art and reading.

deCordova’s family programs are designed to welcome a wide range of ages and abilities. Sensory kits are available to help anyone feel more comfortable and engaged. Please contact mnelson@thetrustees.org to discuss reasonable adaptations to benefit anyone in your group.

Pre-ticketing is required in order to anticipate capacity. Your ticket includes admission to deCordova’s campus, so please feel free to explore the grounds before or after the program.
