Join us in Newark for an inspiring and joyful literacy celebration featuring beloved author and illustrator Vanessa Brantley-Newton and Grammy-winning musician Lucky Diaz. Families will gather at The Newark Museum of Art for a lively morning filled with storytelling, music, creativity, and the magic of books.
Children and families will enjoy engaging moments that celebrate imagination, creativity, and the joy of reading together. Through stories, illustration, and music, this special event brings books to life and encourages young readers to explore the power of creativity and storytelling.
Following the program, books will be available for purchase and signing, giving families an opportunity to meet the creators and take home a special memory from the day.
