We wanted to let you know we are in the planning
stages of our annual book festival. We wish to thank all of you who have
participated in the past for helping us make them so successful. Last year we
had over 60 authors who attended and sold their books.
6TH ANNUAL DEARBORN STREET BOOK FESTIVAL
It will be held Saturday, February 21, 10 a.m. to 3
p.m.
Pioneer Park on W. Dearborn Street,
Englewood.
The fee will be $25 per space.
This is an outdoor event. We ask you bring your own
table and chairs. Tents are welcome but not required.
We will once again be sponsoring a writing contest named
“Write-On-Englewood”. It is a short story and
poetry competition. No more than 250 words for a poem, no less than 500 words
for a short story, no more that 800. There is no theme and we ask for
unpublished work. A $5. entry fee is requested for each entry and you may submit
as many entries as you like. There will be cash prizes, so start writing. We
will furnish a mailing address later for entries.
There is nothing for you to do now but to mark your calendar. You are on our mailing list so closer to the Festival you will receive more detailed information. Looking forward to seeing you all in February. Any questions e-mail Diana.
