On March 1, 2023 Kiwanis Club of Imperial Beach and South Bay will be launching our Literacy program in partnership with Readability, the first voice-recognition reading improvement technology. The event will take place at the Imperial Beach Library from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. At the event, parents of eligible K-6 students will be able to learn about the program, and sign their child(ren) up, and receive access to twelve free months to the Readability application. This Artificial-Intelligence (AI) based application is designed to develop the child's critical thinking skills, foster love of reading, boost the child's confidence, build a stronger overall academic performance foundation, and create a strong foundation for success. We believe our project will also incite a culture of visiting libraries; and checking out and reading books. In conjunction with the access to the Readability application our Club will have quarterly in-person literacy events to ensure ongoing support and commitment to the children of our community.

Artists and Repertoire: Rafael Payare, conductor Marc-André Hamelin, piano Richard Wagner: Prelude & Liebestod from Tristan und Isolde Franz Liszt: Piano Concerto No. 2 in A Major Johannes Brahms: Symphony No. 1 in C minor, Op. 68 About the program: The exquisitely romantic Second Piano Concerto by Liszt is performed by the great Lisztian, Marc-André Hamelin, whom the New York Times hailed as “A performer of near-superhuman technical prowess.” Music Director Rafael Payare leads the Orchestra in Brahms’ Symphony No. 1, featuring one of the most famous openings in Romantic music, with the deep throbbing bass like a heartbeat, and a great arc of melody rising and falling — it seems so inevitable, so strong a way to begin this symphony. Note: gates for the Thursday performance will open at 6pm. An additional performance takes place Friday, Nov. 18 at the California Center for the Arts, Escondido.
