SUMMARY:Book Bash 2024
DESCRIPTION:The Guelph 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. \nThis year\, it will be held on Sunday November 3\, 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM\, at the Guelph Farmers’ Market. \nOver thirty 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. \nThere 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\, live music\,gift wrapping\, and other fun! \nThere is no cost for the event\, but donations will be accepted for Action Read\, a local charity that provides literacy programs in the community. \n“As a writer\, I’ve participated at the Book Bash each time I have new work to share. No\, it is not a\nFahrenheit 451 style destruction of radical writing\, nor is it a standard book sale. The actual authors\nstaff the tables. The atmosphere is celebratory\, and the wares are unique. There’s nothing more\nfulfilling for me\, as the author\, to be able to explain my book and meet readers who have enjoyed my\nprevious publications. Whether I’m meeting someone new\, or a repeat supporter of my work\, the\nafternoon is energizing. Also\, as an avid reader myself\, I enjoy the interaction from both sides of the\ntable\, and always return home with books from my colleagues.” \nMarion Reidel \n
