Each year we send authors to local high schools the day before the festival!* If you want us to consider your school for an author visit, read this informational sheet and then fill out this form.
*We only visit high schools since the books being presented skew older YA and may or may not have suitable content for children under 13.
· 10:35 – 11:15 Author Speed Dating: Educators, as you sit and relax, authors will make the rounds in the room, each spending about 5 minutes at your table to chat about their books, about possibilities for partnerships your school, about whatever is on your mind!
· 11:25 – 11:55 Author Panel: Three area authors will answer your questions about ways to develop partnerships, including school visits.
· 12:00 – 12:30 Author-Educator Lunch Mixer: An opportunity for informal conversations with some local authors. We’ll have snacks on hand, and you’re welcome to bring your own lunch in!
· 12:40 – 1:20 Author Speed Dating: Same set-up as the a.m. session, but completely different authors! So you’ll want to hit both.
We always need assistance spreading the word about NoVa TEEN Book Festival to students! Help us out by putting up fliers, talking to administration about making announcements, offering extra credit to students who come, and doing whatever you can to tell everyone about this FREE event.
