The Association of Rhode Island Authors is proud to announce that the Rhode Island Author Expo will be going virtual this year.
The Expo committee has been working hard to learn what needs to be done to put on a free virtual event.
The Rhode Island Author Expo website has been updated with a registration button, panel schedule and participating authors.
The event will be running from 10 AM – 5 PM and will be held on Zoom.
There’re author panels just like in years past along with keynote speakers and this year we’re trying something different with an author kaffeeklatsch, a nice intimate setting to sit down and talk to one of our many local authors.
I hope to see you at the Expo in December where I’ll be on two panels and a kaffeeklatsch.
You can find my schedule here.
The Warwick Public Library has cancelled the Warwick Public Library’s Author Meet & Greet scheduled for Saturday, March 28th.
The library is adhering to the Rhode Island State of Emergency that states people should stay away from events where large amounts of people may gather for fear of the corona virus.
