MARKHAM READS 2026
The 2026 edition of Markham Reads has come to a close, and we’re grateful to everyone who took part in this year’s shared reading experience. This year, readers across Markham explored Restaurant Kid, opens a new window, sparking meaningful conversations about newcomer experiences, family and growing up in the restaurant business. From engaging programs to a conversation with the author, it was a joy to come together and celebrate reading as a community.
We’re already looking ahead and look forward to announcing next year’s title, with Markham Reads returning in May 2027.
What's Markham Reads?
Markham Reads is an annual celebration of books, ideas and community. Each year we encourage everyone in the community to share in reading the same book and then coming together to connect with each other and have conversations about the themes and ideas of the books.
