AISD summer reading event splashes down
Tuesday, May 7, 2019 by Tai Moses
Summer + reading: Aren’t those two beautiful words just meant for each other? We think so, and so does the Austin Independent School District. AISD Libraries, BookPeople and the Austin Public Library have partnered up to organize a free summer reading event featuring some of Austin’s favorite authors. The Summer Reading Splash also offers reading lists, book signings and other fun literary stuff geared toward readers in grades 3 through 6, but all interested members of the reading public will be welcome. The Splash is 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, May 18, at AISD Performing Arts Center, 1500 Barbara Jordan Blvd. You’ll find the full author lineup, summer reading lists and more details here.
