A Literary Recipe
Cook's Notes: Take the talents of 35 authors, mix them with assorted titles and genres, spice it up with visitors of all ages, combine with animated literary conversations and book signings, and add in a tantalizing presentation by a local author and you have a recipe for success.
The 28th Annual Northwoods Art and Book Festival exceeded expectations with over 2,500 attending to enjoy featured artists and authors, food vendors, children's activities, a poetry scavenger hunt, and music. With so many books covering a variety of genres, book lovers found a little bit of heaven at UCC. an author tent outside and inside the Community Building.

Congrats on what looks to be an amazing event that I would love. The turn-out of 2,500 is impressive. Well done, Sue.
ReplyDeleteThanks, it was a collaborative effort by all but Frank's presentation was "off the charts". So many came to hear him about 100 the most ever we have had for an author presentation.
DeleteThe burst of tropical flavors and the medley of textures make it an instant hit, and I can't wait to try it out and share it with my friends and family. Thanks for sharing this amazing recipe! 🍍🥭🥝🍓
