Virtual Event: World Read Aloud Day with Peter H. Reynolds

  • The Wang Theatre 270 Tremont Street Boston, MA, 02116 United States (map)

Join Peter H. Reynolds on Wednesday, February 1 for World Read Aloud Day, live from Boch Center’s historic Wang Theatre.

During this free virtual event, Peter H. Reynolds will read his inspirational book Happy Dreamer to an audience of lucky students from Boston & Chelsea public schools, followed by a fun workshop led by the Boch Center Education Team as a part of their Interactive Readings: Stories Alive! Program.

For over a decade, World Read Aloud Day has celebrated the power of reading aloud to create community, amplify new stories, and advocate for literacy as a foundational human right. The global effort, created by the non-profit LitWorld and sponsored by Scholastic, is celebrated annually in over 173 countries and is all about bringing people together through the shared connection of reading aloud in all of our communities.

This event is part of our ongoing collaborations with our partners at the nonprofit Boch Center, which offers performing arts entertainment and cultural educational experiences for the most diverse audiences possible. As part of that mission, the Boch Center oversees the iconic Wang and Shubert Theatres - both which have been anchored Boston’s historic Theater District for 100 years.
