- **Event Description**: Second Sundays Book Fair at Kestrel Cafe

Meet local authors, hear them live, and step into new worlds at Kestrel Cafe.

We’re creating something a little different with our Second Sundays Book Fair. Too often, authors are placed in busy markets where their work gets overlooked while people pass by on their way to something else. Writing is a craft, and it deserves space, attention, and connection.

This event is designed to bring that focus back.

Join us for a curated gathering of local authors, where readers can slow down, listen, and engage directly with the people behind the books. Throughout the afternoon, authors will be sharing live readings, offering a glimpse into their work, their voices, and the worlds they’ve created.

You’ll have the chance to browse, chat, ask questions, and discover something new in a relaxed, welcoming space. Whether you’re looking for your next favorite book or just want to spend time surrounded by creativity, this is a place to explore and stay awhile.

We’re inspired by the book fairs many of us grew up with, the ones that made reading feel exciting and personal, and we’re carrying that feeling forward in a way that fits our community now.

This is the beginning of what we hope will become a recurring event, with new authors and new stories featured each month.
