Celebrate the joy of reading at Reading & Rhythm on the Riverfront, a beloved children’s literacy program now in its 16th year. This engaging series brings stories to life with lively read-alouds from local celebrities, business leaders and community voices who share a passion for inspiring young readers.
Each event features live, interactive entertainment designed for the whole family—combining music, movement and storytelling to create a fun, welcoming atmosphere along the riverfront. Plus, thanks to our partnership with the Detroit Public Library’s Library on Wheels, children can take home free books to build their own personal libraries.
Perfect for families with young children, Reading & Rhythm offers a meaningful way to spark imagination, encourage literacy and enjoy time together outdoors.
Reading & Rhythm is presented by the Detroit Riverfront Conservancy with support from General Motors.
