2025's Theme

Reimagining Literacy

Real Talk Series

Financial Literacy

Learn how money really works

(before the bills hit!).

From picture books about saving pennies to teen guides on building credit — reading helps every age learn how money works before life gets expensive.

Health Literacy

Breaking down wellness and care in ways that every age can understand.

Whether it’s a story that helps kids name their feelings or a resource on mental health for teens, reading builds the confidence to care for your mind and body.

Digital Literacy

Screens Don’t Forget. Choose What They Remember.

Reading sharpens your skills to tell what’s real and what’s AI — because being digitally smart means knowing when to question what you see, click, and share.

Exhibits & Activities

This isn’t just a book fest — it’s an experience.

We’ve got hands-on activities, chill spaces, and creative corners where you can learn, build, vibe, and geek out — all while discovering how reading shows up in real life.

All Things Comics

All things graphic novels, anime, fandom, games, and collectibles.
