The Big Read
A Community Reading Program
Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury

September 25 - October 29, 2009

Join us in reading a book worth rediscovering or reading for the first time: Fahrenheit 451. Come back here in August to find the schedule of author events, presentations, film screenings, book discussions, arts- and school-based activities as we confirm the dates.

Teachers and group organizers: contact us to request free books and resource materials for your students and classes.

Art teachers: contact us for information about submitting art works (any medium) inspired by the book for the exhibit during October in the Faulkner West Gallery.

Librarians: we can provide you with materials for your own Fahrenheit 451 book discussions. Contact the program coordinator (below).

The Big Read is an initiative of the National Endowment for the Arts in partnership with the Institute of Museum and Library Services designed to revitalize the role of literature in American culture and bring the transformative power of literature into the lives of its citizens. The Big Read brings together partners across the country to encourage citizens to read for pleasure and enlightenment.
