We're pleased to have author Winsome Bingham at the museum for a family program on Sunday afternoon, October 20. Ms Bingham will read THE WALK, illustrated by E. B. Lewis, followed by a conversation with families about empowering the children in their lives and how we can foster and encourage them to make choices. THE WALK is not only about voting and democracy. It is about community, love, and conversation.
Admission by donation.
My name is Winsome Bingham and I am an author and literacy advocate for reading and authentic representation of children and communities in childrens literature. I am the author of one of The New York Times Best Books of the Year, SOUL FOOD SUNDAY, which is also the Connecticut Book Award winner and the Coretta Scott King Honored Illustrator award for C. G. Esperanza. I am a connoisseur of soul food and a master cook (at KidLit dinner parties, reunions, and get-togethers). I am a teacher by trade and a disabled military veteran by circumstance. I received both bachelors and masters degrees in education, and an MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults.
Winsome Bingham's books will be available in the shop.
