2026 Events

🎉 2026 Events

2026 is shaping up to be our best year yet!
Our Children Read is hitting the ground running with an exciting lineup of school book fairs, educational conferences, cultural festivals, and family-centered events across Georgia and beyond.

Everywhere we go, families, teachers, librarians, and children will connect with our mission:
to inspire and empower young readers through representation, confidence-building stories, and a genuine love of reading.

From classrooms to convention centers, from community parks to church campuses, Our Children Read will continue putting powerful, affirming books into the hands of children — reminding them that they are seen, valued, and capable of greatness.

(Upcoming 2026 Events will be added after being completed)
