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.
