It's Authors & Illustrators Weekend

Following their workshops at Lowell Elementary tonight, several of the writers and artists will sign their books at Apostrophe Books in Belmont Shore. Come meet Patch team members at either place!

If you're unable to make it to Lowell Elementary School's annual Authors & Illustrators Night this evening, or haven't been able to reserve a spot at this popular event, you'll have a chance to at least meet some of the talent tomorrow on Second Street in Belmont Shore.
