Join us for an inspiring storytime in the garden! Stories come to life through interactive book readings by librarian Melissa Koszer. For rain or other extreme weather, meet in Gund Theater in Wave Hill House. Ideal for children ages two to six with an adult. 

Drop-in with limited capacity, first come first serve. For questions, please email us at information@wavehill.org or call 718.549.3200 x251.


Melissa Koszer or “Ms. Melissa” is a dynamic children’s storyteller & entertainer with 10 years of experience. A native New Yorker, she has worked across NYC showing children and their grown-ups just how much pure, absolute fun reading can be. Ms. Melissa lives in the Bronx with her husband, son, two small serious cats and one big extremely unserious dog.     

The Wave Hill House Lawn is a grassy area with sloping hills. A flat area is accessible following mixed-material pathways with varying elevations.
