The Door County Community Foundation has awarded Sturgeon Bay School District a sustainability grant from the Ruth and Hartley Barker Memorial Fund, the Children and Youth Fund, and Arts Endowment Fund. This grant supports a visit from children’s book author and illustrator, Nathan Hale.
Nathan Hale will spend time at each of the five Door County school districts to give presentations to students. Additionally, the school districts are partnering with the Door County Reading Council to offer one evening workshop presentation with Nathan Hale for families and community members.
“In his school talks, students will have the opportunity to ask Hale questions, learn about how he writes and illustrates his books, and maybe even try some writing of their own,” said Kacie Mueller, Community Relations Officer of the Door County Community Foundation. “Getting these children excited about the writing process at a young age sets them up to enjoy reading and writing for a lifetime. We are pleased to contribute to that fundamental joy.”
