Bringing Stories to Life: Literacy Coalition Partners with Arts Council for Book
Midland, TX - The Literacy Coalition of the Permian Basin, in partnership with the Arts Council and local author Rosie Talley, is bringing the joy of reading to young students through a special Storytime and Book Delivery initiative with their Books for Bright Futures Program. Throughout February, students at five local elementary schools will receive engaging storytime sessions and free books, fostering a love for reading and creativity.
Scheduled Visits:
- South Elementary - February 4th, 10:00-11:00 AM

"Books have the power to open new worlds, and we want every child to have that opportunity."
"We are thrilled to partner with the Arts Council and Rosie Talley to make reading an exciting and engaging experience for these students," said Letticia Martinez, Executive Director of The Literacy Coalition of the Permian Basin.
