Fun & Amazing Library Shows
Perfect for New Jersey Libraries Looking for Fun Summer Reading Program Options!
Library Shows & Summer Reading Programs that Pack Your Library!
Many so-called library performers put on a fun show. But library media specialists need more from their library shows. A LOT more.
Interactive library performer Jim Vagias understands his role when he visits your library. An effective incoming library program must accomplish several goals:
- Draw in patrons
- Encourage them to check out more books
- Get new guests to sign up for library cards
- Keep them coming back!
He does all of this with a fun combination of amazing magic, interactive fun, and his pal Mortimer the puppet. Best of all, each year Jim customizes a brand-new show tailored specifically to that year’s Summer Reading Program theme.
