The Texas Bood Festival was established in 1995 by First Lady Laura Bush, an ardent advocate of literacy, to honor Texas authors, promote the joys of reading and benefit the state's public libraries. From a party for Babar with his creator Laurent de Brunhoff to an in-depth panel about America's standing in the world, the Festival covers the gamut of new ideas and hot books published this year, all free and open to the public. Check it all out here.
Please Note: This event happens across multiple venues, including the State Capitol, State Capitol Grounds, Alamo Drafthouse, Jewish Community Center, The Continental Club, Austin Museum of Art and more. Check Book Festival Calenar for details.
