The Scarborough Public Library will kick off its annual Summer Reading Program with a performance of “Magic by Scott Jameson” on Friday, June 26, at 3 p.m. at the library, 48 Gorham Road. No preregistration is required for this free event.

Jameson’s show features a family-friendly, theatrical brand of magic and juggling combines an “out of the box” technique with a diverse music soundtrack.

Families can register children for the Summer Reading Program beginning the week of June 21 during library hours. Themes are “Be Creative at Your Library,” for pre-K to grade 5, and “Express Yourself at Your Library” for grades 6 and up. The program runs through Aug. 14 with reading games, creative arts and enrichment programs.

The Summer Reading Program is funded by the Friends of the Scarborough Library.
