SUMMARY:Find Waldo Month!
DESCRIPTION:Looking for a free\, family-friendly summer activity?! The iconic children’s book character in the red-and-white-striped shirt and black-rimmed specs will be visiting twenty-five Takoma Park businesses throughout this July. Anyone who wishes to participate can pick up a “Find Waldo Local in Takoma Park!” stamp card at People’s Book\, which will contain the names of all the participating businesses. With each Waldo you spot\, you can get your card stamped or signed by the participating shop. Waldo has also misplaced his glasses in People’s Book\, so eagle-eyed hunters can find those as well! Collecting store stamps or signatures at 10 or more businesses will entitle diligent seekers entry into a grand-prize drawing for free Waldo books and paraphernalia at the end of the month! \nBelow are participating businesses: \n\nTableTop\nHouse Mouse Vintage \nCielo Rojo \nTakoma Park Farmers’ Market \nAce Hardware  \nThe Big Bad Woof \nTPSS Coop \nLost Sock Roasters \nSpring Mill Bakery \nThe Covered Market \nSoko \nPark Florist \nIndigro \nHouse of Musical Traditions\nFulfilery \nOlive Lounge \nKin Da

SUMMARY:The Green Way Reading Series
DESCRIPTION:About the Series:\nThe Green Way Reading Series is a monthly literary event based in Takoma Park\, MD curated by Elizabeth Bryant and Takoma Park’s Poet Laureate Taylor Johnson. The series centers emerging and established poets and artists in interdisciplinary\, intergenerational and cross-regional dialogues. We want these programs to encourage growing participation and local engagement in the evolving landscape of contemporary poetry. The intention is to bring something new to this area with offerings that provide a space for horizontal community building\, the generation of new work\, and the amplification of local poets. The series is made possible by generous support from the Cave Canem Foundation and the Maryland State Arts Council\, in addition to our collaboration with Takoma Park’s People’s Book. We hope that you can join! \nThis is an in-store event. \nJuly’s Contributor Bios: \n\nVictoria Newton Ford is a poet from Memphis\, Tennessee.
