How to Turn Obstacles and Constraints into Strengths

Online Event
Tuesday, October 13, 2026, 11am – 12pm

Join us for an inspiring virtual conversation with bestselling author David Epstein as we explore his latest book, Inside the Box, and rethink how to approach our greatest challenges!

We're told to "think outside the box" to innovate, solve complex problems, and reach our goals. But what if the secret lies in working within our limitations? In Inside the Box, David Epstein draws on science, research, and real-world case studies to demonstrate how top performers and innovators turn rigid limits into unmatched strengths.

If you can't attend live, register anyway and you'll receive a recording of the talk!

The Library's online author talks are made possible thanks to the generous support of the Long Beach Public Library Foundation.

Preschool Storytime @ Alamitos

Alamitos Neighborhood Library, 1836 E. Third St. 90802
Friday, October 16, 2026, 10:30 – 11am

Preschool Storytime is designed especially for children ages 3-5 years old to give them access to opportunities that promote school success and build early literacy skills (what children know about reading and writing before they can actually read and write).

Preschoolers are encouraged to see themselves as readers through focused interactions with library staff who present imaginative stories to demonstrate pre-reading skills. Story sessions typically last 30-40 minutes and include stories, flannel boards, fingerplays, and big body movement activities.

Come spark your child's love of reading: talk, sing, read, write, and play with us! Upstairs in the Community Room. Stair access only.

Harte Neighborhood Library, 1595 W. Willow St. 90810
Saturday, October 17, 2026, 12 – 1pm

East West Players Theatre for Youth Tour Presents: When Yuri Met Malcolm. Told through the prism of her unlikely friendship with Malcolm X, this play explores the legacy of Yuri Kochiyama. We follow Yuri’s life from her “red, white, and blue” days in the Japanese American internment camps, to her rapid radicalization during the civil rights movement, to all her activism that followed through the decades. What does it mean to be a citizen of our flawed, flawed country? And how much can a single person do to change it?

About Theatre for Youth: EWP's Theatre for Youth strives to expand curriculum while promoting cultural
understanding and racial tolerance among youth by spotlighting pioneering Asian Pacific Americans and their groundbreaking contributions to our collective history.

Saturday, October 17, 2026, 2 – 3pm

Get ready to put on your sombreros and botas for this fun and immersive Norteño dance workshop! Huapango Norteño dancing originated from mix of Spanish and indigenous traditions in northeastern Mexico when migrants from the region brought traditional Huastecan rhythms to northern hubs like Monterey, or regional conjunto norteño groups adapted the tempo. Participants will engage with traditional attire and accessories including sombreros, pañuelos, and belts before stepping onto the dance floor to practice their movements. No dance experience necessary, kid-friendly instruction provided! Recommended age: 6–10 years old.

¡Prepárense para ponerse sus sombreros y botas en este divertido e inmersivo taller de baile norteño! El baile de huapango norteño se originó de una mezcla de tradiciones españolas e indígenas en el noreste de México, cuando migrantes de la región llevaron los ritmos tradicionales huastecos a centros del norte como Monterrey, o cuando los grupos regionales de conjunto norteño adaptaron el tempo.
Los participantes interactuarán con la vestimenta y los accesorios tradicionales, incluyendo sombreros, pañuelos y cinturones, antes de pasar a la pista de baile para practicar sus movimientos. No se necesita experiencia en baile; se ofrecerá instrucción apta para niños. Edad recomendada: de 6 a 10 años.

Indigenous Teachings for Wisdom, Power, and Healing

Online Event
Tuesday, November 3, 2026, 11am – 12pm

In a fast-paced world that often leaves us feeling overwhelmed and disconnected, true healing does not come from looking outward—it begins within.

Join us in conversation with Indigenous medicine woman Asha Frost as she explores her groundbreaking book, You Are the Medicine: 13 Indigenous Teachings to Connect to Your Inner Wisdom, Reclaim Your Power, and Heal.

Through storytelling, ceremonies, and Shamanic journeys, learn to apply ancient wisdom to your life in ways that are respectful and conscious of the stolen lands, lives, and traditions of Indigenous peoples.

If you can't attend live, register anyway and you'll receive a recording of the talk!

The Library's online author talks are made possible thanks to the generous support of the Long Beach Public Library Foundation.

Preschool Storytime @ Alamitos

Alamitos Neighborhood Library, 1836 E. Third St. 90802
Friday, November 6, 2026, 10:30 – 11am

Preschool Storytime is designed especially for children ages 3-5 years old to give them access to opportunities that promote school success and build early literacy skills (what children know about reading and writing before they can actually read and write).

Preschoolers are encouraged to see themselves as readers through focused interactions with library staff who present imaginative stories to demonstrate pre-reading skills. Story sessions typically last 30-40 minutes and include stories, flannel boards, fingerplays, and big body movement activities.

Come spark your child's love of reading: talk, sing, read, write, and play with us! Upstairs in the Community Room. Stair access only.
