Book Harvest hosting annual MLK Jr. Day Dream Big Celebration and Book Drive
DURHAM,N.C. (WTVD) -- Book Harvest invites the community to come together in celebration and service at its 15th Annual Dream Big Book Drive.
The event is scheduled for Monday, Jan. 19, from 1-4 PM at Boxyard RTP in Durham.
Held in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy, Dream Big is Book Harvest's largest event of the year. The celebration centers around the organization's vision to bring books and literacy to every child.
The event is part book drive, part volunteer opportunity, part community partner fair, and part festival.
Book Harvest gladly accepts new and gently used children's books for ages 0-18. The organization has a special need for:
- Board books and picture books
- Spanish and bilingual titles
- Books that reflect diverse backgrounds, languages, abilities, and perspectives
- Stories by and about people of color, ensuring all children can see themselves represented in the pages they read
