The Gathering of Authors is this Saturday! We're excited to host the tenth annual Gathering of Authors (yes, ten years!), a celebration of Kentucky’s rich literary tradition where we host writers from across the Bluegrass. But the Gathering isn’t just about the authors… it’s about you, the readers! This event is an excellent opportunity to meet some of your favorite Kentucky authors in a casual atmosphere. You can stop by, chat with this year’s participants, and pick up their newest releases which they will have available for sale. You can even get your books signed! This year’s Gathering of Authors will take place on Saturday, August 19, from 10:00am to 2:00pm at the Woman’s Club of Frankfort (200 Washington Street). Let us know you're coming! |
