Greensboro Bound: A Literary Festival

The Friends of the UNCG Libraries wants to make you aware of a budding book fair/literary festival, to be held  May 18-20, 2018 .  Greensboro Bound:  A Literary Festival  targets bringing 60+ authors to downtown Greensboro for presentations, workshops, panels and an array of family-centric activities.   Spearheaded by Guilford County's two indie bookstores, Scuppernong Books of Greensboro and Sunrise Books of High Point, plus an emerging group of community partners, the all-volunteer organizing committee would love to get feedback from FOL to help craft programming and identify the authors you'd love to see in Greensboro.   Take a moment and help us launch  Greensboro Bound:  A Literary Festival .  https://www.surveymonkey.com/ r/GNZZFPV
