TARGET STORYTELLERS' WEEKENDS
As part of it’s commitment to supporting education, Target recognizes the integral role reading plays in shaping a child’s future. Because reading is the foundation for lifelong learning, Target supports early childhood reading and offers families an opportunity to celebrate the joys and benefits of reading through our Summer Target Storytellers’ Weekends.

We hope you will join Children’s Fairyland and Target in celebrating these diverse cultures the third weekend of each month during the summer.
