Story Time at Newcomb & Leopold libraries: win tickets to a Geelong Arts Centre show!

Monday 25 March 2024

During April, at many of our libraries we will host special Possum Magic-themed Story Time sessions for little readers to enjoy.

Possum Magic has been casting its spell over readers for more than 40 years. And, by attending one of our Possum Magic Story Times at either Newcomb or Leopold libraries, you’ll go into the draw to win a family pass to Monkey Baa’s stage adaptation at the Geelong Arts Centre!

Featuring spellbinding magic, puppetry and original music, Monkey Baa’s award-winning team has turned the whimsical world of the book Possum Magic into an exciting live experience for audiences aged 3-8 and their families.
