Celebrate the opening of the exhibition after school in the Heinz Architectural Center with this school-themed story time.
Join us in the Ailsa Mellon Bruce Decorative Arts and Design galleries for an in-person morning story time with Alyssa Velazquez as she reads School’s First Day of School, story by Adam Rex and pictures by Christian Robinson. Following the reading stick around for a making activity for children 12 and under.
This reading is made possible by Roaring Brook Press.
About the Book
It’s the first day of school at Frederick Douglass Elementary and everyone’s just a little nervous, especially the school.
