Come one, come all to the Warwick Children's Book Festival! Find the Festival at Stanley-Deming Park or, in the case of rain, the Warwick Valley Middle School at 225 West Street. The festival will feature more than 70 distinguished authors and illustrators of books for children, who will be on hand to meet families, talk with readers, and sign their books, which will be available for purchase. The Uncle Brothers will perform a free children's concert beginning at noon. Food trucks and a children's craft activity will round out the fun.
This event is presented by Albert Wisner Public Library with the generous sponsorship of Glenn P. and Susan D. Dickes, champions of children's literacy and longtime Library benefactors. A portion of the festival's proceeds will benefit the Albert Wisner Public Library Foundation.
