Why the Big Read?
The Big Read aims to broaden our understanding of our world, our communities, and ourselves through the joy of sharing a good book. Managed by Arts Midwest, this initiative offers grants to support innovative community reading programs designed around a single book. This year's Big Read in Christian County will focus on CIRCE by Madeline Miller. Activities (many of which will be held virtually) will take place from February 18 through March 18, 2021.
