RAFA is a free event that promotes the value of family reading activities, and nurturing children’s imaginations. This family literacy day is a great opportunity to introduce kids and their parents to the literacy activities available throughout the community. Attend RAFA to experience the gift of literacy through storytelling, music, puppeteering, and other art forms.
Check out the performers LCNV has lined up: RAFA Performers.
Take a look at the event schedule to see which performance you’d like to attend: RAFA Schedule.
Want to spread the word about RAFA? Download the Reading: A Family Affair poster. Print this flyer and post it in family-friendly businesses in your community (e.g., grocery stores, bookstores, coffee shops, churches, family restaurants, etc).
Volunteer at Reading: A Family Affair. LCNV is still looking for people to help out this week as we prepare for the big day. Please fill out this form, which expedite the placement process: RAFA Volunteer Form.
Come to Reading: A Family Affair: celebrate literacy this Saturday, March 24, 2012.
