Live theatre at the Library! Enjoy a free performance of EllaMental, the new play from Plan-B. Meet Ella as she struggles to make sense of her Big Feelings from the pandemic. Suggested for grades 4–6.
Created for grades 4-6, EllaMental centers on Ella, a Black, 12-year-old 6th-grader struggling to make sense of her Big Feelings from the pandemic — grief, loss, fear, and anger — in a post-COVID world.
EllaMental engages students in an accessible, real-time, comforting conversation, one as barrier-free as possible, one that instantly invites students to live inside the play rather than searching for a way in.

This beautiful facility was designed to complement the Rose Park neighborhood with sensitivity to its site on the Jordan River Parkway. An open space plan, with a large community meeting room and outside deck area, will accommodate this growing community for many years.
The south property of the Day-Riverside Branch is home to TreeUtah's EcoGarden, a "food forest" where all members of the community can learn about urban farming and organic gardening. The Day-Riverside Branch has a meeting room available for public use that features tables, chairs, a projector screen, and a piano.
Free parking is available to the west of the building, and free wi-fi access is provided throughout the library.
