We’re thrilled to share that we were selected as a National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) Big Read Community for 2026. CCPL joins organizations from across 47 states and Puerto Rico who were chosen as this year’s grant recipients.

"In this year's NEA Big Read, grantees from across the nation are bringing their communities together through reading, discussion, and creative activities that dig into stories from American history, classic American literature, and contemporary American novels, reminding us all that American stories are still being written, and that every reader has a part in that telling,” said Torrie Allen, president and CEO of Arts Midwest.

CCPL appreciates this recognition and looks forward to bringing the sights, sounds, and heritage of Appalachian mountain culture to Cecil County later this fall and into the new year with programming, exhibits, and book discussions highlighting Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver.

This project is supported in part by the National Endowment for the Arts and Arts Midwest.
