Children’s Area – Located on the mezzanine level is the Children’s Library, where playhouses provide space for crafts and drawing-based activities, early literacy programs, and a full-body indoor play experience. Festooned in a colorful, graphic wallpaper of origami birds, the entire Children’s Area is delineated by custom-designed bookshelves with kid-sized nooks to play and read.
