This summer, we’re inviting adults to slow down, savor a good book, and bring a little color into their reading lives with our Color Our World Adult Summer Reading Program!
Here’s how it works:
When you register (starting June 23), you’ll receive a welcome pack (while supplies last) with:
- A set of colored pencils
- Two color-by-number bookmarks to track your reading journey
For every book you read, color in one number on your bookmark and earn one raffle ticket for the prize basket of your choice. You can earn up to 30 tickets total during the program (additional books past 30 just earn bragging rights).
Our raffle basket themes are:
- Food and Drink
- Get Cozy
- Dark & Gritty
- Get Outside
BONUS: Read a book with a color in the title (think The Color Purple, White Teeth, Red Rising, etc.) and you’ll also earn a stylish enamel pin of your choice!
As well as the raffle tickets, anyone who reads 12 or more books between June 23 and September 1st will get to pick a brand new book to keep.
