McNally Jackson Storytime & Art Virtual Event Featuring Author Katie Yamasaki: “Everything Naomi Loved”

November 10, 2020 by Denise Courter

McNally Jackson Storytime & Art Virtual Event Featuring Author Katie Yamasaki: "Everything Naomi Loved"

 

McNally Jackson has announced a new virtual event, geared towards children and it’s free to attend.

Katie Yamasaki (When the Cousins Came, Fish for Jimmy), internationally-acclaimed muralist and author of Everything Naomi Loved, will be live on November 14th, via the McNally Jackson virtual Zoom stage. Katie Yamasaki’s murals and paintings are at once monumental and moving. Everything Naomi Loved entwines a celebration of community and friendship with a vision of social justice in this lyrical and universal story about home. Co-author Ian Lendler is the author of the hilarious, award-winning Stratford Zoo graphic novel series. Katie will read Everything Naomi Loved, then share the backstory and context of her incredible new book. Katie will also lead a cool drawing activity for kids, so have your paper, plus pencils or markers, ready.

Date: Saturday, November 14th

Time: 11:30 am

Fee: Free

One of our favorite traditions is displaying our h One of our favorite traditions is displaying our holiday cards on our wall. It’s been so fun to see pictures of our friends with their kids, their 4-legged pets or a beautiful card with no pictures and a note. The hard part is deciding when to take them down. In an effort to stay connected and to keep the conversation going with the kids, I think this year we will keep them up for a while longer. Connectivity is our theme for 2021 and grateful to see friends and family on our holiday wall this year. Any traditions we should know about for the new year? Please share!
