Book Fest Planning Underway!

We’re looking for creative, high-energy book lovers to help us plan the next CANANDAIGUA CHILDREN’S BOOK FEST!  As in past years, we’ll celebrate literacy with a day packed with craft activities, presentations, storytelling, author / illustrator meet-and-greets. An event of this magnitude requires event sponsors and a team of dedicated volunteers to make it happen.  Can we count on you? To learn more, please email us communityreadingpart@gmail.com

Enjoy a few photos from past years:
