Mill Valley Reads 2021: Begin Again with James Baldwin

In early 2021, the Mill Valley Public Library launched its first-ever City Read program called Mill Valley Reads: Begin Again with James Baldwin. The program aimed to bring the community together by encouraging residents to read and discuss two books: Eddie S. Glaude Jr.'s Begin Again: James Baldwin's America and Its Urgent Lessons for Our Own, and James Baldwin's The Fire Next Time.

These are the graphics, flyer, and sticker (placed on free copies of the books) created to promote the program. The illustration of James Baldwin and Mill Valley Reads logo were created in Adobe Illustrator. Adobe Photoshop and InDesign were used to combine the graphics with text for the web images, flyer, and sticker.

Mill Valley Reads 2021 won the 2022 California Library Association PRExcellence Award in the Event or Campaign (less than $5 million budget) category!
