Trinity Prep Author Festival 2020!
Trinity Preparatory School's fifth annual Author Festival will take place on Friday, Feb. 7, 2020 from 3 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. in the Trinity Prep Library and on our picturesque campus. The event is FREE and open to the public! We have 34 YA and Middle Grade authors scheduled to attend, including three NYT bestsellers. Last year we saw 450 attendees, and we look forward to having even more this year. Event planners, Reba Gordon, Director of the Rich Library, and English 8 & YA Lit Teacher, Georgia Parker, have book signings scheduled, as well as multiple concurrent authors panels. Come anytime between 3:00-6:30 to experience all we have to offer.
Writer's Block, a local Winter Park bookstore, will be on hand selling books. Bring a book from home to be signed, or buy one the day of the festival. A price list, as well as a schedule of panels, will be available closer to the event.
For more information, email authorfest@trinityprep.org.
All spots are full for 2020. If you are interested in participating in our event in 2021, fill out our Inquiry Form!
