November is Family Literacy Month. In celebration of Family Literacy Month, The Dock Bookshop hosts the 14th Annual Literary SoulFEST Saturday, November 12, 2022.
The goal of this festival is to advocate, promote, and celebrate literary arts and literacy and bring community awareness to issues concerning our youth, health, environment, and economy as well as support for our social responsibility for building reading skills and transforming lives.
Literary SoulFEST is a creative and innovative approach to promote literacy based on the National Literacy Act of 1991 definition of literacy: "an individual's ability to read, write and speak in English and compute and solve problems at levels of proficiency necessary to function on the job and in society to achieve one's goals and develop one's knowledge and potential " Literary SoulFEST brings together the novice reader, authors, publishers, poets, writers, artists, book clubs, avid readers, scholars, families, students, educators, aspiring actors/actresses, organizations, churches and businesses. From this collective energy, we hope to cultivate new readers and enlighten seasoned readers in the surrounding communities. This event was founded by Donya Craddock, Donna Craddock and Dominique Johnson, Mama Gregory owners of The Dock Bookshop.
