Now in its fourth year, Reading & Rhythm on the Riverfront not only introduces and aids children in reading, but also introduces them to Detroit leaders and community voices.
The six-week-long series, now in its fourth year, will feature readings from local celebrities, interactive and family-friendly entertainment, music by Guy Louis and Kevin Devine, healthy treats, free carousel rides, and a book of their own to take home.
The program is open to all children and families and other nonprofits like the South Oakland YMCA, Wayne County Community Action Agency, and Southwest Solutions will be present throughout the series as well.
Rivard Plaza is located at 1340 E. Atwater in Detroit. For more information visit detroitriverfront.org
