Family Storytime
Family Storytime with Author Stefanie Foster Brown
Sunday, November 2 | 2–5 PM
Free admission | Presented in partnership with KidZone
Step into a storybook afternoon at the New Bedford Art Museum!
Join children’s author Stefanie Foster Brown for a magical reading of her debut picture book My Heart Speaks Kriolu, a tale inspired by her family’s Cape Verdean roots and the spirit of New Bedford itself.
We’ll transform the KidZone classroom into a cozy reading nook, perfect for little listeners and big imaginations alike. After the story, kids can roll up their sleeves for a hands-on craft with our playful KidZone crew.
Bring your curiosity, your creativity, and your cozies because this event is completely free and open to everyone! Books will be available for purchase and signing after story time.

As a former school psychologist, I spent a lot of time listening to kids tell their stories. Everytime a kid trusted me enough to tell me what was going on in their world, it felt like they were handing over a gift. And as a writer, I’m always thinking about what gift I can give back.
