FRPCV hangs up big banners all around town. With the help and generosity of many supporters they are displayed on the sides of buildings throughout the community spreading the read together message.
<some of our banners around town
The banners are colorful illustrations created by local and national children’s book illustrators, including Elmira’s Tedd Arnold. The banners come in two sizes, a 9x12’ billboard size and a smaller 3x4’ size. 16 large banners have been hung inside or outside different buildings in our community.
Similar banners have been hung in Ithaca by the Ithaca Family Reading Partnership. A third grade teacher in Ithaca commented, “We love being surrounded by the “Read To Me” message. The banners reflect what we value as a community, children, families, reading and art.” We hope that people in the Chemung Valley feel the same way.
