Author readings, book displays, crafts and food are all planned for the upcoming New Rochelle Festival of Books, June 20 and 21st at the public library.
The New Rochelle Public Library and the Harlem Book Fair, in conjunction with the City of New Rochelle, will host this two-day book extravaganza that will “transform the library’s lobby and on the adjacent Library Green with booths and tents of book sellers and publishers, ethnic foods and crafts, as well as live outdoor music,” reads the library’s promotional material.
There will be dozens of internationally-known authors and local performers presenting readings, discussions, workshops, and dramatic performances, some geared specifically for children.
On Saturday there are workshops and seminars about memoir writing, publishing poetry and how to get published among the offerings.
Date/Time: Saturday June 20 from 9:00 am – 5:00 pm and Sunday June 21, from 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm.
Place: New Rochelle Public Library, 1 Library Plaza
