@wordupbooks.bsky.socialTONIGHT #ClimateWeekNYC
@wordupbooks.bsky.socialOur sixth #UptownKidLit was a blast 🚀 Even with the heavy rain, we welcomed 500 people to @sugarhillmuseum, had 30 volunteers running around, hosted 21 authors and teaching artists, and gave away over 1,700 books! Not bad for a rained-out day in a new venue ❤️
@wordupbooks.bsky.socialHappy #ClimateWeek and the first week of fall! We’re continuing the busy book energy with FIVE standalone book events with authors, and two of them en español. Plus we have a new gallery going up at #RecirculationNYC and two offsite this weekend for #BridesMarch and @bkbookfest.bsky.social
@wordupbooks.bsky.socialWe want to take a moment to thank our sponsors and community tables for making #UptownKidLit possible this year! We lost a major sponsor but were still able to pay all our teaching artists and performers.
Check out their pages and send them all love!
@wordupbooks.bsky.socialBeautiful night celebrating the legacy of the Mirabal Sisters in this new graphic novel adaptation ❤️ Thank you #JuliaAlvarez #KrystalQuiles and @claudiadelacruz.bsky.social for the great discussion of #InTheTimeOfTheButterflies
@wordupbooks.bsky.socialDue to rain, #UptownKidLit will be at @sugarhillmuseum this Sunday! The programming schedule has shifted slightly but we’ll still have the same fun with stories, activities, and FREE BOOKS AND SCHOOL SUPPLIES.
See you there at 10:30am when doors opens!
