NEA Big Read is accepting applications from non-profit organizations to develop community-wide reading programs between September 2016 and June 2017. NEA Big Read is a national program that broadens our understanding of our world, our communities, and ourselves through the joy of sharing a good book.

 

Organizations selected to participate in the program receive a grant, educational and promotional materials, and access to online training resources and opportunities. Approximately 75 organizations from across the country will be selected.

 

Funding ranges from $5,000 to $20,000

 

We are proud to announce the addition of two new titles to the Big Read list this year: Vaddey Ratner’s In the Shadow of the Banyan and Tayari Jones’s Silver Sparrow.
