Event Details

The 4th annual Henderson Reads Book Festival will take place on Saturday, April 26, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Water Street Plaza. 

Fifteen talented authors and illustrators of picture book, middle-grade and young adult genres will be on hand to present their work and share their creative processes.

What to Expect:

  • Live Readings
  • Author Talks
  • Book Signings
  • Activities
  • And MUCH More!
     

The festival will feature three rotating stages, each dedicated to a specific category, where authors will have a designated time to speak, followed by a book signing session, allowing attendees to interact with their favorite writers. With so many authors in one place, it’s a perfect opportunity to discover new books and hear firsthand from the creators behind the stories.

In addition to the author presentations, the festival will be filled with a variety of family-friendly activities and entertainment. Enjoy face painting, get your picture taken at the photo booth or take part in a Where’s Waldo scavenger hunt. The event will also feature books for sale by the authors and local vendors.

Visit the Vegas PBS/PBS KIDS booth for hands-on fun, PBS KIDS giveaways, and resources to inspire a love of reading at home. Get ready for a day filled with stories, learning and fun!
