Family Literacy Conference 2026
The Family Literacy Event Conference 2026 took place on April 24th, 2026 at the Mountain Meadows Golf Course in Pomona. The venue is known for its elegant setting and scenic views of the San Gabriel Mountains, making it a fitting place for a community event focused on literacy and families.<br><br>The night featured All the Stars in the Sky, written by Art Coulson. The story follows a boy named Clay who wants to be “star of the week” at school because he believes it will make him the most important person there. His grandmother helps him understand that real importance does not come from standing out alone, but from being part of a family and community. She compares people to stars in the sky, explaining that while one star can shine, a constellation of many stars working together creates something much brighter and more meaningful. The message is based on the Cherokee concept of Gadugi, which emphasizes working together for the good of the community.<br><br>The event also featured a performance by the DA Center for the Arts through their De Colores Program. This program serves families with children ages 0–5 by offering puppet shows, music, movement, and art activities that strengthen the bond between parents and children through interactive learning. In addition, many parents were recognized with certificates and trophies for their valuable contributions and support of the Pomona Unified School District Child Development Program.<br><br>The event included delicious food with dessert provided, along with great music and a photo booth for families to enjoy and capture memories together. Seven lucky parents also won toy raffle prizes for their children. Overall, the event highlighted the importance of literacy, family engagement, and community support, showing how stories and shared experiences can bring people together.
