Endless Possibilities to Explore Literacy
The Possibilities Hub presents seminars, reading groups, or a series of talks that explore a topic through and/or about literacy to expand individual and communal capacity to understand what literacy work can be and do today.
The Possibilities Hub is where we explore literacy through hot topics and understand what we as a community can do to advance literacy today.
Each hub is typically a 6-8 month seminar series led by experts, activists, and community members who are deeply involved in the topic.
