The Rhode Island Festival of Children’s Books & Authors includes nationally acclaimed authors and illustrators who each give a 30-minute presentation on their work, life, and philosophy. You will have the chance to meet and talk with the authors and illustrators and have your books personally signed. The Festival has a great selection of their books for you to purchase, including new releases.
Between talks, you can participate in bookmaking crafts – perfect for the young and upcoming artist! Enjoy an exhibit provided by the Providence Athenaeum of antique children’s books and books that inspired our authors and illustrators.
