What many people in the local literary community refer to as our “literary new year” will be here before you know it: The Baltimore Book Festival takes place on the weekend of September 25, 26 and 27, and offers a little bit of lit for everyone. The event is free and fun!
As a part of the festival, the “Lit & Art at the Watermark” series will bring fiction, poetry, non-fiction, live music, original artwork, and refreshments to the Creative Café on Sunday, September 27 from 5 to 6 p.m.
Started in October 2007, the Lit and Art series provides a unique opportunity to sample a wide variety of artistic sensibilities in one sitting. The program will feature series regulars Eric D. Goodman,Nitin Jagdish, Sonia Linebaugh, Angela Render, Fernando Quijano III, music by Red Tractor Factory and original artwork by Manzar.
Come experience what has been called “the best excuse to get lit in Baltimore on a Sunday afternoon.”
