New book up on the story path at Island Park in Adrian!

🌱 Lola Plants a Garden 🌻

In this story by Anna McQuinn, illustrated by Rosalind Beardshaw, Lola becomes inspired to plant a garden after reading a book of garden poems. She visits the library to gather more books, chooses the plants she wants, and, with her mother, buys seeds, prepares the garden, and marks the rows for planting. Lola experiences the challenge of waiting for the seeds to grow, but eventually, the flowers bloom, leading to a joyful celebration with her friends.

Adrian Rea Literacy Center maintains the Island Park story path to help promote family literacy and as a thank you to the community for all of your support!

Have you checked out the Local History display at the Adrian District Library yet?

Located in the front lounge near the main entrance, the display features exhibits created by several local organizations, each sharing a piece of their history and impact in our community. We're honored that the Adrian Rea Literacy Center is included!

We hope our display helps spread the word about ARLC and inspires more volunteers, tutors, and learners to join us in improving adult literacy throughout Lenawee County.

If you're visiting the library, be sure to stop by and explore all of the featured organizations. Thank you to the Adrian District Library for giving local organizations the opportunity to share our stories with the community!

A warm welcome to our new Board Members, Barb Hunt and Rosie Vazquez!

Barb is a long-time ARLC tutor with a background in education, and Rosie is the Family Engagement Coordinator at APS Head Start. Both women are active Lenawee County community members who believe in giving back and making their community a great place to live for everyone. We are so grateful to have them onboard to help lead us in our quest to provide literacy services to any adult in our community who needs them.

Pictured here are Barb, Board President Christine MacNaughton, and Rosie.

Last week, ARLC learners and tutors enjoyed a wonderful field trip to the Lenawee Historical Society!

Participants learned about the history of World War II POW camps and migrant labor camps in Lenawee County before taking a guided tour of the museum.

Experiences like these do more than build English and cultural knowledge—they help our learners feel more connected to the community they call home. Thank you to the Lenawee Historical Society for sharing our local history and helping make it come alive!

Earlier this week, ARLC Learner Chantelle took the Oath of Allegiance at her naturalization ceremony. ❤️💙🤍

Her hard work, determination, and perseverance have paid off, and we couldn't be more proud of her.

Congratulations, Chantelle! We are so excited to celebrate this milestone with you and can't wait to see all that comes next.
