The city of Mountlake Terrace will celebrate Children’s Day on Thursday, April 23, at City Hall, 23204 58th Ave. W., where children and families are invited to participate in activities and meet the City Council.

Refreshments and entertainment are provided from 5:30 to 7 p.m. At 7 p.m., the City Council will read a Children’s Day proclamation, and all children in attendance will be invited to receive a copy.
No RSVP is required. Parking is free in the Civic Campus lot.
