Symphony of Stories Book Week Celebration

About

Strings and stories come together at Moe Library on 22 August 2026, as live chamber music transforms the space into something a little more special. It is a free morning out that rewards early arrivals with both great sound and a warm cup of coffee.

The Symphony of Stories event is part of the national Children's Book Week program, an annual celebration that brings communities together around the joy of reading. This year Moe Library and Service Centre marks the occasion by inviting Vivace Quartetto to perform, blending the theme of storytelling with the expressive language of classical music.

Vivace Quartetto play an eclectic mix of classical works, contemporary pieces and popular favourites, creating an atmosphere that feels welcoming rather than formal. A free coffee cart operates from 9.30am to 11.45am, so visitors can settle in, listen and enjoy the morning at their own pace. The quartet performs from 9am through to 12pm, giving plenty of time to drop in and stay a while.

Events like this one reflect Latrobe City's commitment to making arts and culture accessible to everyone, regardless of age or background. Bringing live music into a public library lowers the threshold for people who might not otherwise seek out a concert experience, and it gives families a genuinely memorable way to mark Book Week together.

Entry is free and no bookings are required. Head to Moe Library and Service Centre at 1-29 George Street, Moe on Saturday 22 August 2026 from 9am. For more information call the library on (03) 5135 8500 or visit the event listing at Latrobe City Council's website.
