“I wanted to see the program again, so I called the meeting last fall and invited all organizations to think about who was interested.” Jamie PaulMarketing and communication coordinators at the University of the Arts. “At that time, the North Arizona Book Festival was already planning to incorporate it.”There“So, we started with the book and decided that it would make the most reasonable to end the season around the main festival.”
The goal of this program is to build a community, get a book in a variety of viewers, and promote community dialogue on important themes and problems, to support art and humanities. Encourage enthusiasm.
Some events are planned, including art, writing, poetry workshops, book discussions, books, presentation of experience from local communities, scavenger hunt, and bingo games. You can also get ‘T for free copyHere”One of these events.
“There are many different types of programs, but they are all related to a wide range of themes.There“Includes identity, how to form an identity in connection with family, culture, and place, and how complicated it is,” Paul said.
Some programs are targeted at all ages, but are designed for detailed discussions with books and community members who have read books, like book discussions in the library on April 9. 。
Art workshops are created and promoted by NAU art students, and writer workshops are built around readers’ experience. The idea is to gather communities and share experience and discussions.
“That’s right next year’s theme Our nature: How to guide us for, courage, and connection, our physical environment, And there are 22 books on their options, “Paul said. “We will use a community voting to narrow down to three finalists, make another vote in April, and choose next year.”
