Author & Illustrator Fair

More than 20 authors and illustrators from the Metro Detroit area will be at the Orion Township Public Library to share their works on Saturday, December 3 from 1:00p to 4:00p. Books for readers of all ages will be available for signing and purchase. This is the perfect opportunity to find holiday gifts!

There will be hot chocolate, cookies and some of your favorite authors like Bryan Chick, Ruth McNally Barshaw, Johnathan Rand and more! Drop in anytime between 1:00p and 4:00p.

In conjunction with The Giving Season: Author and Illustrator Fair, the Orion Library will be collecting books for the Good Steward Global Initiative which helps alleviate the book famine that prevents children and adults in many developing countries from learning to read. Good Steward is an all-volunteer program (501c3) that gathers donated books, uses volunteers to sort them and then ships these books to Africa to build libraries. Good Steward also provides instruction and on-going training for the care and development of these libraries which are maintained by the local communities in which they are a source of great pride.

There will be a collection box in the lobby of the library November 28 through December 10.
