Ohioana Book Festival – Opening Ceremony

The 2020 Ohioana Book Festival is just around the corner. It’s taken time, planning, and lots of adjustments to make it happen. Our thanks to everyone for their patience in hanging in there with us!
 
The three-day festival takes place Friday-Sunday, August 28-30. Our website provides information, updated regularly, on the Festival programs and activities. You can purchase books by your favorite festival authors online, starting next Tuesday, August 25th.
In addition to the three-day festival, we’d like to invite you to another online event: the Opening Ceremony!
Thursday, August 27th, the night before the festival officially opens, we’re having a special preview. 
 
This ceremony will kick off the festival for authors, fans, supporters – everyone! We’ll preview the programs coming up that weekend. We’ll have a few surprises, and some giveaways, too, courtesy of our promotional partners, Johnson’s Ice Cream and Gateway Film Center.
Like all festival events, it’s free and easy to join.

There is something for every reader at the Ohioana Book Festival. Join us as often as you can August 28, 29, and 30th. Plus, the entire program will be available on YouTube after the festival wraps up.
Please keep checking Ohioana’s website and social media for all the latest information!

Thank you so much for your support! We’ll see you at the preview on August 27!

The 2020 Ohioana Book Festival is (finally!) just around the corner. It's taken a long time, a lot of planning, and lots of adjustments to make it happen. Our thanks to everyone for their patience in hanging in there with us! The attached August Newsletter is our special book festival edition, which has the list of all our participating authors. It also lists the festival sponsors and partners, whose support has made this event possible. As you know, the three-day festival formally takes place Friday-Sunday, August 28-30. The newsletter gives you the link to our website where you'll find information (which is being regularly updated) on the programs and activities taking place. You'll also find the link where you can purchase books by your favorite festival authors online, starting next Tuesday. Besides the three-day festival itself, there's one more online event we'd like to invite you to: a special preview the night before the festival officially opens: 8 p.m. on Thursday, August 27. This will serve as a festival kickoff ceremony for authors, fans, supporters - everyone! We'll preview the programs coming up that weekend. We'll have a few surprises, and some giveaways, too, courtesy of our promotional partners, Johnson's Ice Cream and Gateway Film Center. Like all festival events, it's free and easy to join. Simply register at this link: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2020-ohioana-book-festival-opening-ceremony-tickets-117574730183?aff=ebdssbonlinesearch We like to say there is something for every reader at the Ohioana Book Festival. We hope you'll join us as often as you can on August 28, 29, and 30. And remember, the entire program will be available on YouTube after the festival wraps up.
