Program Description

Event Description

Join us for the Community Read as we discuss the award winning book A Duet for Home by New York Bestselling Author Karina Yan Glaser (The VanderBeekers). A Duet for Home is a triumphant tale of friendship, healing, and the power of believing we're never truly alone in the world, told from the perspectives of two sixth graders living in a homeless shelter.

This book club is in conjunction with the Homeless Alliance's Fresh Start Art Show in the Atrium of the Ronald J. Norick Downtown Library from October 2-24. The art show allows individuals experiencing homelessness a creative outlet and also assists them in becoming permanently housed through sales of their art. 

Bring a pair of white socks, white gloves, or a white winter hat and join us in tie-dying winter gear to donate to the Homeless Alliance!

This book discussion is encouraged for children in grades 3+ and their caregivers to read and discuss together, but all ages are welcome. Read the book together before the book discussion on October 21. It will make your heart sing!

All ages welcome, solo or with family!
