## About

Berryessa Branch Library celebrates Filipino American History Month with a bilingual storytime followed by parol lantern making. Children hear stories and music that honor Filipino American traditions and contributions, then craft a parol, the star-shaped lantern traditionally hung at Christmas in the Philippines, with materials provided by partner Reimagine Dreams while supplies last. Free with limited capacity in the Community Room; suited to preschool and elementary kids with their families.
