Here's Our Story

"A word after a word after a word is power." Margaret Atwood

 

At Reading Is Revolutionary, we believe that sharing stories--our own and others'--can change the world and enrich lives. It can bridge divisions, offer comfort and hope, and open new horizons and perspectives. Our mission is to serve as a community champion and resource for literacy and the literary arts by:

  • Organizing engaging festivals that introduce young readers to new authors and books

  • Spearheading book drives for marginalized groups and communities ​

  • Introducing workshops that empower new voices

  • Offering special events and community programming that focus on sharing ​the written and spoken word

Reading Is Revolutionary was founded in 2024 by Village Books owner, Teresa Kenney, to expand the reach and impact of the literary arts and literacy programming.
