New Partnership!
We’re delighted to announce a new partnership with Monroe County’s One Book One Community. We have been awarded a mini-grant from the Michigan Arts and Culture Council and Creative Washtenaw to work with Monroe County Community College (MCCC) in creating a special program to launch a month-long celebration of reading in the spring of 2024. Michigan author Sally Cole-Misch will talk about her novel, The Best Part of Us. The kick-off event will be on March 12, 2024.
This activity is supported by the Michigan Arts and Culture Council and administered by Creative Washtenaw.
