PJ Theater

PJ Theater is a great family program to enjoy at the Library.  Each month is a different show – magicians, puppeteers, movies, and so on – filled with entertainment! All ages are welcome to join us for the fun while wearing their favorite pajamas and munching on snacks from home, if desired. In November, we will be showing the Disney Pixar movie Brave, which is rated PG and runs 100 minutes.  In December, look for a fun holiday show near the end of the month. Who knows what January will bring? Because every month is different, your little one will look forward to the new excitement awaiting him or her at PJ Theater!

The Youth Department extends our sincere thanks to the Friends of Bloomfield Township Public Library for generously supporting PJ Theater. Please visit our events calendar for exact dates and times of this and all other programs.
