Open Call for PA Authors

Hershey Library and Cupboard Maker books are teaming up to bring you the 2nd Chocolate Town Book Festival. We are excited to welcome John Vercher, Kate Baer, Misty Simon, and Sara Walters to this year’s festival alongside many other popular local fiction authors. Can we count you among them?

This year’s Chocolate Town Book Festival is October 1, 2022 from 1-5pm in Chocolate Town Park. We will be in downtown Hershey for the afternoon. This location and grouping of authors will provide a wonderful opportunity to meet new people and cultivate new readers. This festival is for fiction work only and is open to children’s authors as well.

Chocolate Town Book Festival is a family-friendly event, outside and open to the public. This allows more patrons to participate in the event. If you have questions, please do not hesitate to reach out. You can reach Aly Tran at the Hershey Public Library at atran@derrytownship.org or Michelle at Cupboard Maker Books at books@cupboardmaker.gmail.com
