Raising Readers in Wyoming will hold a fund-raiser this weekend at Barnes & Noble Booksellers, 1851 Dell Range Blvd., Cheyenne. As you make your purchases Friday through Sunday, just tell the store clerks you want to participate in the fund-raiser. It doesn’t cost you any extra, and Barnes & Noble will donate a percentage of sales to Raising Readers, which gets books into the hands of young children.
Special guests will be at the store’s children’s section to read books to kids and their parents. Those sessions begin at 11 a.m. on Saturday, Dec. 1, and noon on Sunday, Dec. 2. Sunday’s guests include Wyoming First Lady Nancy Freudenthal and former First Lady Sherri Geringer.
FMI: Barnes & Noble, 307-632-3000.
The Wyoming Arts Council believes that experiencing the arts should be accessible for all, including people with mental and/or physical disabilities, older adults, military/veterans, people living in institutions and those who lack access to the arts due to geographic isolation, cultural difference and economic hardship.
