Calgary Children's Book Fair and Conference
NBurman Design is proud to be a sponsor of the Calgary Children’s Book Fair and has just launched (and hosted) their new website.
The Calgary Children’s Book Fair and Conference, featuring local children’s authors and illustrators in Calgary and the surrounding area, will be held on Saturday, November 14, 2009 from 10 am to 4 pm at theHillhurst Sunnyside Community Centre in north west Calgary.
Discover the wealth of talent in your own backyard!
The Calgary Children’s Book Fair and Conference represents a fabulous opportunity for children to meet local writers, chat with them about their work and obtain an autographed and personally inscribed copy of a favourite book. All participating authors will also be reading from their own work, followed by a short question and answer period, throughout the day. If you are interested in becoming an exhibitor at this year’s event, you may find registration information here.
The Calgary Children’s Book Fair and Conference will also feature the very first Children’s Fiction Writing Award. Children in two age categories, eight to twelve and twelve to fifteen, will unleash their own incredible imaginations to create a truly unique story, in the genres of science fiction, fantasy or mystery. The winning entries, to be announced at the Book Fair and Conference on November 14, will then be published in an anthology. Learn more about how to register for the Children’s Fiction Writing Award.
What a great idea for an event, and such a cool website as well.
Glad you like the site. Some English author friend of mine had the idea. You should meet him, you’d probably get on quite well.
