Free People Read Freely!
An announcement from the Center for the Book-Washington:
Join us in celebrating our right to read the books that speak to us.
People of all ages in Washington state are invited to share their thoughts on the power and joy of reading freely.
Reading can serve so many purposes – entertainment, learning, instruction, understanding, validation, comfort, and so much more.
This summer and fall, Washington State Library, Humanities Washington, and the Washington Center for the Book are coming together to celebrate the power of reading choice.
What does it mean to you to have the freedom to read?
No matter how old you are, or where you are in Washington, we invite you to add your voice to a chorus of Washington readers.
Answer one of the prompts on our form, and we’ll collect and share responses. Watch our social media and stay tuned for an interactive website filled with the thoughts of your fellow Washingtonians about why reading freely is such an important right.
