Another Bristol BookFest is “in the books!”
Thank you to everyone who supported BBF 2026 “Mrs. Dalloway” by Virginia Woolf through your donations, volunteering and attendance at events celebrating the book from January through April 2026.
Our April 10-11 weekend was splendid.
In addition to the presentations of our scholar-speakers, the Rhode Island Youth Poetry Ambassadors Robin Linden and Julia Yakirevich brought new voices to BBF, and our Conversation Parlor, in its second year, was energized and insightful.
We are well underway with early plans for BBF 2027 and for launching our web archive, which will cover our events from “All the King’s Men,” our inaugural book in 2020, through “Mrs. Dalloway.”
