Join us for our first Bilingual Bookfest dedicated to fostering a love for reading and literacy through education and cultural enrichment. We will feature local Latine/Chicane authors, distribute books, and engage in educational activities.

Our event will include: 

• Author Speakers: Presentations and panels with local authors and illustrators.
• Book Fair: A curated collection of books for sale.
• Children’s Corner: Spaces for young readers with storytelling sessions, book-related crafts, and activities.
• Community Resources: Learn about local literacy programs, educational initiatives, and other resources available to support the community. 

Proceeds from the event will go to support our Education programs, which focus on early childhood development, after-school activities, youth advocacy and family engagement.

Registration opens soon!
