Stroll through a Story on Main Street

When you and the family head downtown this season to support our local businesses, be sure to enjoy the Downtown Storywalk created by the Longmont Public Library and the Longmont Downtown Development Authority. This Storywalk features the children’s book, Samson in the Snow, about a kind wooly mammoth who discovers the joy of friendship in the middle of an Ice Age blizzard.

The Storywalk features pages from the book set up in businesses and breezeways on Main Street between Longs Peak and 3rd Avenue. The first page begins at Dance Dimensions at 638 Main St. and proceeds down the east side of Main St. to Third Avenue, where it crosses and continues up the west side of Main St., concluding at 6th Ave. Plaza. The story is in English and Spanish.
