Love local authors? We do too! Join us and our friends at New Book Joy for our very 1st FREE Local Author Palooza Book Fair to celebrate & support some awesome Chicagoland authors (including a few familiar faces you may recognize from past events)
We’ve got quite the lineup ready with an exciting afternoon of MEET + GREETS, BOOK PURCHASES + SIGNINGS, PHOTO OPS & MORE BOOKISH FUN with a wide variety of local authors. This is a chance for readers to discover new titles, for fans to connect with their favorite writers & for everyone to support Chicago’s bookish community. There will be books for ALL AGES & INTERESTS, so make sure you visit each author’s table to learn more about their most recent title(s)!
