Celebrate Indie Press Month with Angel City Press!

Join us for a special evening featuring three celebrated Angel City Press at Los Angeles Public Library authors: Carribean Fragoza, Lynell George, and D.J. Waldie. Moderated by beloved Pasadena author Naomi Hirahara.

These distinguished Los Angeles writers will gather for readings and a celebration of the spirit of indie publishing, discussing their work on capturing the essence, history, and diverse narratives of Southern California.

Acknowledging the power of indie presses and the bookstores that support them, Angel City Press at Los Angeles Public Library is proud to be a local Los Angeles publisher. In more than 30 years of operation, and now a part of the Los Angeles Public Library, Angel City Press has published more than 135 books that tell the social and cultural history of Southern California.

This ticketed event is FREE and will take place at Vroman’s Bookstore, located at 695 E. Colorado Blvd, Pasadena, CA 91101.

There are three add-on options for a book by each featured author.
