4th Annual Bangor Authors' Book Fair and Literary Festival
Join us for Maine’s largest authors’ fair and meet 90+ notable local Maine authors, get your books signed, and support the local literary arts with your purchase of personalized books! Enjoy free readings, talks, and panels throughout the day as we celebrate the Literary Arts this winter holiday season.
Authors from all genres will be represented: adult and YA fiction, non-fiction, romance, mystery, adventure, folklore, outdoors, self help, science fiction, fantasy, cryptozoology, children's books, cookbooks, horror, paranormal, history, and many more. With dozens and dozens of titles by Maine authors to discover, there’s something for everyone. There will also be raffle tickets, sponsors’ vendor tables, and special surprises and events at the day of the show.
The Fair will also feature the special launch of "Echoes in the Fog" a charity anthology to support the Maine Coastal Heritage Trust.
Free admission and programming but if you plan to buy books bring cash, Venmo, or PayPal as many authors cannot accept credit cards. Shopping local and supporting the arts locally is Paul Bunyan approved!
This event is organized and hosted by Bangor Authors' Collaborative, in cooperation with the Bangor Public Library. Founded by author, Christopher Packard.
