Join us on Tuesday, May 2nd at 4 PM ET at the Silberman School of Social Work for La Meriendita, a story hour dedicated to children’s books. This month’s story hour book is When Julia Danced Bomba by Dr. Raquel M. Ortiz, a story about Julia, a young girl finding her rhythm and confidence as she moves to the Afro-Latin tradition of bomba music and dance. Bring your little ones by for a story on their culture and snacks!
