The Great Hackney Libraries Quest is back
For the third year we are running the Quest at all Hackney Libraries, from 18 July to 12 September.
A summer of fun – crafts with Camille at Shoreditch Library
This year, in honour of the National Year of Reading 2026, the theme for the Great Hackney Libraries Quest is Reading Is Magic!
We have collaborated with multi-disciplinary artist Billy Ash Sakula, who works in animation and illustration, to create an exciting and unusual comic-inspired booklet for participants to make their mark on with stamps, stickers and colouring.
This year there are two certificates to be won – one for reading books, and one for doing activities. There are even bonus stickers to collect and prizes to win!
There are lots of fun activities happening, all free, all summer.
If you’re in need of some inspiration for your summer reads – no matter your age – look no further!
“We’ve been to a different library event almost every day over the summer. Huge thanks to the libraries team for creating such a great (free) summer for us!”
