Wrap up your holiday shopping early with a perfect, personalized gift. During the 36th Annual Book Fair & Author Night, you can discover the ideal gift for a book lover of any age and meet more than 95 authors. Pick up a great read and pick the brain of the author as he or she signs.
Ticket sales benefit The National Press Club’s Journalism Institute, a 501 (c) (3) that provides training, research and resources for news professionals and scholarships for the next generation of journalists. For the fifth year, the Book Fair is partnering with The SEED Foundation, which helps under-served students prepare for college. The young scholars attend one of two public boarding schools in the District and Maryland. The students select books they believe would enrich their education and patrons can buy them at the Book Fair to help develop the Baltimore SEED School library. A group of students from the SEED school attend the event each year, giving them a chance to meet with authors and attendees.
Tickets: $10 for the public/$5 for P&P members/$5 for NPC members.
Books must be purchased at the fair.
