Stroll For Smiles - Shorewood Reads

Friday, March 13

7:00 am - 8:00 am

Location: Shorewood Public Library

What does happiness look like to you? On a 40 minute walk from the library to the lakefront, join fellow community members in being very intentional about the things we see and how we feel. Borrow a disposable camera to capture images that strike joy, and you may see the images developed in a future library display!

There will be two opportunities to walk, so join us for one (or both!) in search of even small glimmers of joy.

• Sunrise Walk: Meet outside in the Library Circle Lawn by 7:00am on March 13th
• Afternoon Walk: Meet inside the Library Lobby by 12:00pm on March 13th

Walks will be held in light rain, but if the weather is really inclement (heavy rain, ice, unsafe conditions), we will cancel. Please dress for the weather, bring water, walk at your own risk, and have fun!

These walks, achieved in partnership with the Shorewood Longevity Project, are a part of Shorewood Reads, a village-wide initiative uniting our community around one incredible book. This year’s selection is Happiness Falls by Angie Kim. Shorewood Reads community events and discussions will culminate in a special day with the author on Thursday, April 23, 2026.

Shorewood Reads 2026 is presented by the Shorewood Public Library in partnership with the Friends of the Shorewood Public Library.
