This cultural initiative combines various disciplines such as literature, cinema, training, and family leisure, with the aim of going beyond traditional formats and attracting new readers, with a special focus on the participation of children and young people.
“"We have designed a program so that every resident of Onda can find their space, from regular readers to those approaching a book for the first time. It's about opening up culture, bringing it to the streets, and turning it into an accessible, useful, and shared experience."
The program will kick off on Friday, April 10, with the screening of the film Blancanieves (2025) at La Cassola. Throughout the month, reading clubs will be a cornerstone, with sessions dedicated to works such as Las gratitudes by Delphine de Vigan or Far. Gol en las estrellas by Raquel Tirado, within the Imperio Romantasy club, adapting to different reader profiles.
Additionally, Book Month includes activities for children and families, such as the storytelling session L’arbre de les sabates i altres contes màgics or a lettering workshop, aiming to foster creativity and an interest in reading from an early age. The highlight of the celebration will be on April 23, Book Day, with a continuous reading at the Casa de la Cultura, open to citizen participation.
The program is complemented by cross-cutting proposals, such as activities linked to Health Week, which include a selection of emotional intelligence books and the presentation of La xica més valenta, as well as solidarity actions like the screening of Mamma Mia! for the benefit of a local NGO. All detailed information, schedules, and registrations are available on the municipal website.
