The Reading Corner is our neighborhood-based program whose goal is to nourish the minds of young children by encouraging reading. The program consists of parent and caregiver education while modeling reading to children in a fun environment. Help us promote a love of books! All programs take place at 4111 Broadway (between 173rd and 174th Street). Come read to babies, serve a snack, play games with the older siblings and help us set up and clean up. It is also a great family activity- all ages welcome.
