The Terrebonne Parish Library System in collaboration with the local Community Action Network is introducing their Storywalk series in celebration of Black History Month– locations around Houma will feature printed versions of story books for families to walk around, look at, and enjoy. A special guided tour with snacks will be provided for community members on February 11th at 1:00pm at the Courthouse Square!

The first of the Storywalks series features “I Promise” by Lebron James, and is located at the Courthouse Square in Downtown Houma. The second Storywalk was presented this week, featuring the book “Of Thee I Sing,” by Barack Obama, which is located at the community garden of the Terrebonne Parish Main Library. Both Storywalks will be up for the remainder of the month of February.


A special guided tour will be provided by the Terrebonne Parish Library System and Community Action Network on Saturday, February 11 at 1:00 p.m. at the Courthouse Square. This will provide kids and their families with more information and a deeper insight into the Storywalks, and community members are still free to peruse the Storywalks on their own time. 

For more information about the Storywalk series, contact the Terrebonne Parish Library System at (985) 876-5861 and make sure to visit Courthouse Square and the Community Garden to enjoy the Storywalks!
