Free Lunch at the Library
Well Fed, Well Read
This summer, kids and teens 18 and under can enjoy FREE lunch at participating LA County Library locations.
Meals are available on a first come, first served basis from June 16 – August 8 during the hours of 12 – 1 pm, either Mon – Fri or Tue – Sat, depending on the location (see schedule).
Please note that meals are for kids and teens only and must be eaten at the library during Lunch at the Library hours.
There are no restrictions on family income to receive a free lunch. Menus vary daily; please contact your local participating location for menu information.
Since 2015, LA County Library has been offering free, nutritious lunches during the summer months, helping to keep children nourished and ensure that they return to school in the fall energized and ready to learn.
We hope to see you this summer!
