Author Alley is one of Loganberry Books' signature annual events and a key part of our celebration of Local Voices. Every summer we feature a busy book-fair of local writers, signings, and readings.
This year we will be hosting Author Alley over the weekend of August 9-11, 2024!
We will be kicking off the weekend with a ticketed author reception on August 9th, followed by the book fair on August 10th and 11th.
August 9, 2024 6pm-8pm
August 10, 2024 12pm-4pm
August 11, 2024 12pm-4pm
Author Alley reception tickets are available online here. One ticket to the reception also includes a blind book by a local author, an Author Alley cap, or a Loganberry Books tote bag!
