Join us at the Cannon Beach Library THIS Saturday, September 27th from 3 to 5 p.m. for our first Local Authors Festival, hosted as part of the library’s NW Authors Series. It will be an inspiring afternoon featuring 12 published local authors from Nehalem, Cannon Beach, Astoria, Gearhart, Portland, and Washington, all eager to meet readers, sign books, and share their stories. Whether you’re a fan of fiction, non-fiction, poetry, or children’s books, you’ll have a chance to discover new genres and voices.
Peruse the tables at your own pace. This is a free and family-friendly event! While adults connect with authors, kids can enjoy cookies and cider and a fun coloring contest, with prizes awarded in three age categories.
We will also be selling tickets for and announcing the winners of our month-long Fall Fundraiser raffle and silent auction. Don’t miss this great new event!
