Book Festival News

9:00 AM - 5:30 PM


Excitement is already building for October as Lincoln prepares to welcome an amazing list of nationally acclaimed authors and illustrators to our campus for the Rhode Island Festival of Children's Books and Authors.

Each author and illustrator will give a 30-minute presentation on their work, life, and philosophy.  You and your children will have the chance to meet and talk with the authors and illustrators and have your books personally signed! The Festival has a great selection of their books for you to purchase, including brand new releases.

Between talks, participate in bookmaking crafts (perfect for the young and upcoming artist!) and enjoy a performance by Seattle’s kiddie band Recess Monkey!  USA Today calls them "Awesome," and People Magazine says, "[they're] irresistibly fun - four stars!"

Lunch is available from several of Rhode Island's best food trucks parked directly on our campus.

Admission: $5 per person (payable at door)
