KidLit Fest: Anniversary Edition

It's time to celebrate books for kids! For this fifth anniversary of KidLit Fest, we're traveling back in time to highlight historical fiction, with a focus on the history that happened right here at home in Williamsburg. Activities for kids of all ages will highlight the wide world of children's historical fiction as well as honoring the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Events will include an in-person author visit and book signing from American Girl author Valerie Tripp, guests from Colonial Williamsburg and the Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation, and more. For more information and to see the full schedule of events, visit our KidLit Festival page.
