Cincy Reads is a month-long initiative to promote literacy and the joy of reading across Cincinnati. Led by the Imagination Library of Cincinnati Children’s and Cincinnati City Hall, this challenge unites the community to highlight the importance of reading for both children and adults.

Participants will aim to reach a collective city-wide reading goal of 513,000 minutes, with individuals encouraged to read 513 minutes (about 17 minutes per day) throughout the month of March. Pre-registration is open by visiting cincinnatilibrary.beanstack.org. The challenge runs from March 1st to March 31st. For more info, visit Facebook.com/CincyReads513.2024
