Things to do in Elkhart for Spring Break

Spring Break is a great time for families to spend time together and enjoy the changing season.

But the reality is the weather in northern Indiana rarely cooperates for a picture-perfect spring.

For families staying in the area for the week, Elkhart Public Library offers great activities every day. Get out of the house, away from the screens and spend time as a family at any of these upcoming events over spring break.

Or come by a branch and find some movies or books to get through the week. We’re always open online with digital books and streaming, too.
