--TICKETS ON SALE AUG. 29--
You wore your Book It! button with pride, smashed that personal pan pizza and can still summon the excitement (and smell) of a fresh stack of Scholastic Book Fair catalogs landing in your elementary classroom.
Join us at Scout Hall as we bring the magic back at the Grown-Up Book Fair on October 24-25.
What to expect:
Turn pages and browse the racks for a book or 12 to take home with a curated selection from our favorite local booksellers at The Book Rack. But that's not all, kids. There's more to explore with:
🍹 A full bar with literary-themed cocktails and mocktails for purchase
☕️ Free coffee samples (the best kind) from our pals at the Ground-A-Bout, plus exclusive themed specialty beverages available for purchase only at the Book Fair.
🍪Old school bake sale with all the snacks from Bon Bon's
📓 A library card scavenger hunt (with prizes!!) compliments of rustmedia
🖼️ Art prints for sale from local artists, curated by the Arts Council (no promises on puppies or Ferrari posters, but we'll try)
🧵 DIY crafts and creative experiences with flourish magazine
Photo booth to snapshot all the memories
😎Plenty of chill space to kick back, sip and peruse your latest read
BONUS: The first 100 people to snap up a ticket to the Grown-Up Book Fair receive a FREE Scout Hall tote bag!
Pick your ticket:
We've got something for the night owls, the early birds and the lunch crowd. Choose your ticket for Friday evening OR one of two Saturday sessions and we'll see you all at the Book Fair!
