We are working closely with the Village of Bolingbrook, Bolingbrook Park District and Valley View School District, as well as both the Will County and Illinois Departments of Public Health to monitor the possible spread of COVID-19 (Coronavirus) in the Bolingbrook area. We are following the most current recommendations for treatment and preventing the potential spread of infection.

At this time, we do not plan to limit our hours of service or cancel any programs or events, except for our Maker Faire scheduled on Saturday, March 21 as Governor Pritzker and the DuPage County Health Department recommends canceling programs with an expected attendance of 250 people or more. We recognize the situation may quickly change. Please visit this page for updates.

Please note, our doll collection is temporarily unavailable for check out in an effort to conserve wipes and cleaning supplies for use on high-touch surfaces.
