WKAR Sponsors “Raising Readers” Workshop

WKAR’s Ready To Learn Service will host a free “Raising Readers” Family Fun Workshops on Thursday, April 19, from 5:30-7 p.m. The event will take place at Cumberland Elementary School, 2801 Cumberland Road, Lansing.

The workshop is targeted to families and children ages 4-6, although siblings are welcome to attend. Participants will learn activities that are fun but also offer a new way to build reading skills.

Registration and a pizza supper are 5:30-6 p.m. The program is 6-7 p.m. Families attending will take home a free book for each child and learning activities for children and adults to do together.

The workshop is free, but space is limited and registration is required. Please register by April 16 by calling (517) 755-3283.

WKAR’s Family Fun Workshops are made possible by grants from Jackson National Life Insurance Company, Macy’s and Target.
