In essence, NWA Bookfest is not only about celebrating books but also about building community connections, supporting the arts locally, and inspiring creativity.

is booknet fest worth it?
booknet fest is THE event i look forward to every single year! there’s nothing else like it in the book community, because it’s all about the community! this isn’t an author fan event (even though awesome authors attend). it’s a READER event. panel topics are super broad and cover writing topics
