The Sant Martí Sarroca Town Council is organizing a massive collective dictation on April 19th at the Neus Català i Pallejà Library, aiming to break local and national participation records.

This cultural initiative is part of the Local Reading Plan and the Sant Jordi celebrations. While Barcelona holds the national record with 120 participants, the town hopes to attract a large crowd to the library's rooftop. The dictation will not be graded, as the primary goal is community engagement.
Journalists Joan Poquí and Mònica Hernàndez will host the event, which features professional writers reciting the texts for three different age groups. Registration is available via Entrapolis, with special gifts for the first 500 participants and prizes for the most active local organizations.
