[…] This event will take place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 20 at The John Brown Farm State Historic Site. It will bring together children’s and young adult authors and illustrators under a big convening tent and several smaller tents to meet their readers of all ages, read aloud and talk about their work. A youth-led panel and activities that pair select books with the natural beauty of the John Brown farm and hands-on art making and discovery are also planned. The festival will be free, open to all.
