About this Event

Boogie Down Storytime is a family-friendly experience that cultivates early literacy awareness through joyful reading experiences. Each storytime is led by our Storytime Manager Wesley Sanders, generally lasts about 45-60 minutes, and includes:

  • Interactive read-aloud by an author, illustrator, or educator
  • Q&A so young readers can engage directly with the reader
  • Routines like mindful breathing that build social-emotional skills
  • Welcome shoutouts to honor each individual child in our community
  • Movement inspired by the book, led by Bronx yoga teacher Jazy Cintron

Space at outdoor sites is extremely limited (5-10 families total, depending on the site). Pre-registration is required. Reserve your family's spot now to guarantee a space!

This event will take place at (924 Kelly Street) in the Bronx. To enter the garden, go down the stairs and through the tunnel into the backyard of the building at 924 Kelly Street.
