Southcentral Kentucky Community and Technical College hosts their 9th Annual African American Read-In
Please join us on Wednesday, February 28, 2024 from 2:30-4:30 p.m. for the 9th Annual African American Read-In!
This year’s event will provide our community with a wealth of resources and information and will feature several speakers from around SKYCTC’s campus community, including Professor Coni Waggoner-Edwards, Adult Education Specialist Timothy Stockton, and Instructor Melissa Courtnage. Our faculty and staff are excited to offer short talks to the community regarding the importance of literacy and education, embracing diverse perspectives, and the enduring influence of Black artists and writers on our modern culture. We will also hold an open forum for students, faculty, staff, and community members to share poems, or passages from essays, novels, or short stories from their favorite Black American artists and authors. Refreshments will be provided.
This event will be held on SKYCTC’S Main Campus in the Building L lobby/social staircase and will be live-streamed to other SKY campus locations. This event is free and open to the community.
