University of South Carolina-Aiken issued the following announcement on November 8.
Aiken, SC (11/08/2021) — The University of South Carolina Aiken (USCA) Department of External Programs invites guests to the first Center for Lifelong Learning (CLL) Book Fair. The event will be held on November 13 in the B&E Gym from 10 a.m. - 3 p.m. Admission is free, but guests are encouraged to donate at the door and be entered to win prizes.
The event will promote local authors and offer book lovers an opportunity to meet and chat with the authors while browsing unique titles. A total of 46 authors are expected to participate with more signing up as the date draws closer. The fair will have sessions on African American heritage poetry, fantasy, and more.
"The authors who will be attending represent a wide range of writing genres, from middle-grade fiction to fantasy and science fiction. If you plan to attend, please allow enough time to attend some or all the sessions and also to talk with any authors whose writing interests you," said Steve Gordy, book fair organizer, and CLL curriculum chair. "We're doing this book fair as a fund-raising endeavor, but also to let the public know how much writing talent we have both locally and regionally."
