Books, blankets, and sunshine – where turning the page brings families together, the Phoenix way.
Join the University of Phoenix Jacksonville Alumni Chapter for a heartwarming back-to-school celebration in partnership with Ebri Education and READ USA. We’re inviting families to relax under the sun with their favorite books, enjoy live readings from local children’s authors, and explore fun, interactive literacy stations led by UOPX alumni volunteers.
“BYOB – Bring Your Own Book” — families are invited to bring their own books, picnic blankets, and chairs to enjoy a relaxed, engaging afternoon of reading and learning in the park.
Activities include:
DEAR (Drop Everything and Read) moments with calming music
Local author spotlights sharing live on stage
Hands-on literacy activities and take-home resources
*NOTE: Originally scheduled time has been changed to accommodate heat advisories. The event is now 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM.
