Participate in a kid-friendly artist talk with illustrator and author Innosanto Nagara.

As a part of his wide-ranging career as a graphic artist and activist, Nagara has written numerous books for kids, including A is for Activist, C is for Community, The Wedding Portrait, M is for Movement, and Oh, The Things We’re For! You’ll get to hear Nagara read from his book My Night at the Planetarium, then participate in a kid-friendly Q&A with the author. 

Pick up a free Nagara book and bring it to the book signing after the talk from 11 AM to noon. Additional Nagara books will be available for purchase in the Wexner Center Store.
