Talk It Up! New Jersey Orators Showcase

This photo is from SCLSNJ’s North Plainfield Memorial Library branch’s Talk It Up! New Jersey Orators Showcase March 8. The Library partnered with the New Jersey Orators to teach children 7-10 years old the art of public speaking and life skills, and encourage an  appreciation for literature, reading and media arts literacy.
During this four-week program, which started in February, participants chose pieces of poetry/literature to practice and present in front of others at the March 8 Showcase.
