Join us for the 3rd annual JCC Block Party & Community Market! The JCC Block Party builds bridges between the JCC community and diverse Asheville through food, local vendors, beer, and music! Everyone is invited to celebrate our city’s diverse heritage, businesses, culture, and people on this special day in June!
An interactive all-ages presentation by Charles Waters, poet and co-author of the new children’s books “Can I Touch Your Hair? Poems of Race, Mistakes, and Friendship” which has this as its premise:
A fifth grade boy and girl have to work together on a poetry project, and they’re not sure what to write about . . . at first. Irene Latham, who is white, and Charles Waters, who is black, use this fictional setup to present paired poems about topics including shoes, sports, music, stereotypes, and much more. Accompanied by artwork from acclaimed illustrators Sean Qualls and Selina Alko, this relatable collection explores different experiences of race, and how we talk about it in twenty-first century America.
Free event with book signing to follow. All ages welcome.
