World Read Aloud Day at Montclair Book Center
In collaboration with Ink Page Imagination, join us in the morning for a multilingual, marathon reader series and an evening open mic night!
This World Read Aloud Day, we wanted to do something a little different to really dive into this year’s theme of Celebrating Learning.
Here’s what we have planned:
Everyone qualifies for a chance to win a prize at checkout! We’re giving out raffle tickets with each transaction and pulling 10 lucky Gift Card and 3 Swag Bag winners just for shopping with us.
From 10-2 PM, children ages 0-12 can indulge in a multilingual, marathon readers series. With various authors reading from assorted works, you’ll engage with different cultures and experiences through interactive, half-hour-long story-times.
After hours, from 6-8 PM, come around back to our event space for an Open Mic style read-aloud opportunity. You’ll have 5 minutes to regale and delight your community with personal stories about experiences or skills learned! While we expect a more adult audience, make sure your stories are appropriate for listeners of all ages.
Interested in volunteering to read? Let us know here!
