The 3rd Annual Carpinteria Festival of Books is returning Sunday, April 12th from 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM!
This authors faire is an opportunity for local-area authors to sell and sign their work and meet with readers-- browse selections from local writers, listen to live readings, and even read to a therapy dog from Therapy Dogs of Santa Barbara!
Co-sponsored by The Carpinteria Writers Group and the Lynda Fairly Carpinteria Arts Center, this free public festival highlights both traditionally and self-published authors.
