Wilton Library and Wilton School District explore racism for Wilton Reads 2021

Wilton Library and Wilton Public Schools have announced that Memorial Drive by Natasha Trethewey has been selected for the library’s community-wide reading event, Wilton Reads 2021.

Programs will be on the library’s website at www.wiltonlibrary.org in February and the school district website at http://wiltonps.org. Age-appropriate book selections will be made for the district schools. Free copies of the book will be given away courtesy of Fairfield County Bank in March. The author will visit virtually in April thanks to the sponsorship of The Village Market.
