A small group of Arizona parents whose children have dyslexia is finally seeing their dream of a traveling children's art exhibit become a reality. The families worked for well over a year with art teachers and other volunteers to develop their vision for the project, create the featured artwork, and assemble informational materials about dyslexia for an accompanying display.
The exhibit made its debut last October in honor of Dyslexia Awareness Month at the historic Burton Barr library as profiled here by Channel 12 news. Next week, it moves for the first time to the historic Roosevelt Row Arts District in downtown Phoenix.
Members of the public are invited to stop by to meet some of the parents and their young artists and learn more about dyslexia on Friday, March 4 from 6-9 pm and Saturday, March 19, from 1-4 pm. The address is 818 N. 1st Street, Phoenix, Arizona 85004.
When the exhibit isn't on the road, it will make its permanent home at the historic library where it began, in the children's book section.
