The Leaping for Literacy project's
POSTER & POETRY CONTEST

 
 
Each Spring, ballet tech cincinnati produces a family-friendly, original ballet that celebrates literacy and encourages families to read together. This Spring, Made in America will take audience members on a journey through time and across our nation with inspiring stories of courageous American youth. As part of the Leaping for Literacy project, this production is inspired by "The Dear America,” “American Girl,” and “My Name is America” book series'. As part of this annual project, we invite area students to participate in our Poster and Poetry Competition.
