Driven by the urgent need to address ​declining literacy rates and the absence of ​opportunities for meaningful self-expression ​through art, Read Art Loud originated in Flint ​and Highland ​Park, Michigan. This initiative ​officially ​gained recognition as a 501(c)(3) ​nonprofit ​organization on January 13, 2022.


Facilitated by experienced and caring ​teaching artists dedicated to empowering the ​voices of our children and youth, our Read Art ​Loud enrichment programs leverage the ​proven benefits of reading aloud and engaging ​in performing arts activities.



MISSION

Whether engaged in short or long-term ​partnerships, OUR MISSION is to collaborate ​with educational and community ​organizations to provide our children and ​youth with flexible and impactful in-person ​and online read aloud enrichment activities ​that improve literacy and foster lasting ​positive social change.
