Various speakers throughout the day will teach about the history and importance of our beloved Schuylkill River and how our health is intricately connected to the health of our land and water. Reading Public Library will be offering Indigenous story times throughout the day.

Enjoy free food, check out some cooking demos, take advantage of free health screenings, create some art, and learn some Native American social dances.

Plus, kayaking on the Schuylkill River will be available courtesy of Take It Outdoors. This family-friendly event is free and open to all and will be held rain or shine. More information can be found at widoktadwen.org.
