The Rio Rancho Book Fair
the largest book event of the year
This Saturday, Nov 7
You are invited to join over 100 local authors and publishers at the Rio Rancho Book Fair on Saturday, November 7, 2009 from 10am to 4pm. The event will be at the Inn at Rio Rancho.
The Rio Rancho Observer says it is the "Biggest Book event in New Mexico this Year!" The Sunday Albuquerque Journal has a nice write-up as well. You don't want to miss this one!
The event is at the Inn at Rio Rancho, which is located at 1465 Rio Rancho Dr (just north of Sarah Road and just north of the Intel plant). A map is available HERE.
This is a great place to start your holiday buying season.
The book fair is being organized by the New Mexico Book Co-op and is held as part of the 20th anniversary celebrations for ReadWest, which is the premier literacy program in the Albuquerque metro area.
The books and crafts will appeal to both children and adults. Over 100 New Mexico authors & artists will participate in the event beginning at 10 AM with a story time for children conducted by New Mexico children's book authors. At 12 noon Don Bullis, author of New Mexico & Politicians of the Past, will be speaking and signing his books. At 2 PM Michael McGarrity, author of The Kevin Kerney Mysteries Series, will address the gathering and sign copies of his books. There will also be a silent auction through-out the day to benefit ReadWest. The book and crafts fair is free and open to the public, but a $2.00 donation at the door is encouraged.
The Book Fair is free, bring the family and tell your friends. We will be at table #4. Please drop by and visit. Looking forward to seeing you there.
Peace,
Hank Bruce & Tomi Jill Folk
