Next spring will mark a milestone for the Ohioana Book Festival as we celebrate its TENTH Anniversary! It has grown from only ten authors and 600 attendees in its inaugural year to more than 100 authors and nearly 3,500 attendees last April.

The 2016 festival will be held Saturday, April 23, from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Sheraton Columbus at Capitol Square. Once again, the festival will be packed with activities that include panel discussions, children’s and teen activities, and a book fair with an on-site Barnes & Noble store.

We are accepting applications for participating authors until December 31, 2015; please click here for details and the application form. We’ll review applications in January and notify those who are selected by mid-February.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to email us at bookfestival@ohioana.org. We hope to see you at the festival!
