Auburn Author Festival

Calling all book lovers for a special weekend of events!
We don’t have to tell you that Auburn is full of literary talent — whether that’s local writers or AU alumni. We’re bringing all that talent together for one memorable weekend!
On Friday, June 2nd, we’re kicking it off with a panel discussion on writing and publishing. Then on Saturday, June 3rd, come out for storytime at 10am, followed by all-day booksignings from a great line-up of authors. Then we’ll close the festivities with a panel discussion on all things Auburn at 6pm.
