Phoenix Public Library, in collaboration with the Wallace and Ladmo Foundation, is issuing a special edition library card to commemorate the cultural significance of The Wallace and Ladmo Show. This iconic program, which aired for over 35 years, served as a pivotal element of local culture by providing daily entertainment and fostering communal ties. It brought together children, parents, schools, and neighborhoods in a uniquely Arizona tradition that strengthened community bonds across generations. This special edition “The Wallace and Ladmo Show” library card reflects Phoenix Public Library’s commitment to celebrating local heritage and supporting community connections.

This event is brought to you with the support of the Friends of the Phoenix Public Library and The Wallace and Ladmo Show Foundation.
