SOUTH LONDONDERRY, Vt. – Children of all ages (and their grown-ups too) are invited to celebrate Dot Day with art teacher Casey Junker Bailey on Saturday, Sept. 16, at the South Londonderry Free Library. This free program begins at 10:30 a.m. Everyone is encouraged to dress in dotty fashion. There will be a variety of creative dot activities, and each family will receive their own copy of “The Dot” to bring home, thanks to a generous grant from the Stratton Foundation.
The South Londonderry Free Library is joining over 26 million children and adults around the globe in 200 countries and sovereign territories to celebrate International Dot Day – a grassroots “creativity and courage” movement, started in 2009 by a teacher in Iowa. Inspired by New York Times best-selling author and illustrator Peter H. Reynolds’ classic storybook for all ages, “The Dot,” International Dot Day inspires young and old to embrace the power of personal creativity to help make their mark on the world, and move it to a better place.
