Book Bash Festival on Nov. 5

GUELPH – The 2023 Book Bash Festival is coming up on Nov. 5, from 2 to 5pm at the Guelph Farmers Market.

The Book Bash Festival is an annual celebration of the books published by Guelph and area authors over the previous year. 

The event is presented by Vocamus Writers Community.

Over 30 authors will be in attendance to sell their books, chat with attendees, and sign copies. 

The authors will be joined by many of Guelph’s micro-presses, bookstores, libraries, cultural groups, and literacy organizations – all the people who help make up our great local book culture.

There will also be storytelling and free books for children, a leave-a-book-take-a-book table, a book composting demonstration, food and refreshments for sale, book prizes, and other fun.

There is no cost for the event, but donations will be accepted for Action Read, Friends of Vocamus Writers Community’s charitable partner, which provides literacy programs in the community.
