Other activities include two days of readings and book signings by nationally known and local authors, a children’s program (this year featuring Pete the Cat), and the Cookbook Café for people needing a break from so much fun. Admission is free to all of the events, save for the early book-buying opportunities.
At the heart of the Festival is our book sale, one of the biggest in the region, offering more than 10,000 gently used books, including fiction and non-fiction, hard and soft covers—all at very affordable prices. Special sections include the Kid’s Corner for young readers; a media rack full of CDs, DVDs and audio books; art books; and a first-floor gallery featuring a handpicked selection of specialty books, limited editions, out-of-print books, and new books donated by leading national publishers.
