Lady Gaga's Born This Way Foundation Teams Up with the St. Paul Library to Read Brave
January 21, 2013
Lady Gaga is planning a special event for the young people of St. Paul, MN. The Grammy-winning pop star's "Born This Way" foundation has partnered up with the St. Paul Public Library for a youth empowerment program called Read Brave. Anyone who participates becomes eligible to board the Born Brave Bus before her February 6th concert. Please note that only those under the age of 25 can take part.
"The cornerstone of Read Brave is the book Everybody Sees the Ants by A.S. King (Little, Brown, 2011), which features themes of bullying, war, and family relationships. The library is encouraging as many people as possible to read it in anticipation of King’s visit at the end of February. And teens who read the book have the opportunity to respond to it in creative ways – anything from videos to songs and photography – and [submit their project digitally] sppl.org/teens/brave for a chance to win prizes that include a VIP pass onto the Born Brave Bus and the possibility of having their work displayed on the bus."
