Catch Up & Read is Galleria Dallas’ Gallery Wall partner for July!

Catch Up & Read, a Dallas-based nonprofit whose mission is to equip children from underserved communities to read on grade level by the end of third grade, empowers teachers with evidence-based literacy practices that give first-through third-graders the reading foundation they need to succeed in school and life.

Along with the exhibit, Catch Up & Read will offer Storytimes at 10:30am on Wednesdays and Fridays throughout July.

On Wednesdays, Storytimes will feature local children’s authors, including Jenn Hill, Kenna Sosa, Rosie J. Pova, Erica Asante and Ha Dinh, and Camp Crafty will host a special pop-up activity inspired by the featured author and their book.

Friday readings will be led by literacy coaches. All readings will take place on Level 3 near The Play Place.
