The 2022 Fall Festival of Literacy was a big success thanks to the students, board members, volunteers, friends and donors who made it possible. Guest author Miki Conn and Assemblymember Pat Fahy gave us encouragement to continue our efforts, and our learners inspired us to never give up.  Special thanks to all the Honorary Committee members and to Blasch Precision Ceramics for sponsoring the event.
