Hi neighbors! I'm writing with an invitation. I am a member of the Board of Directors of Vermont Humanities, one of the presenters of the Vermont Book Awards, our state's premier literary prize. The celebration where we reveal the winners is happening on May 4th in Montpelier and the finalists come from all over Vermont. For more information about the finalists, the event and to buy tickets, go to https://www.vermonthumanities.org/event/vermont-book-award-23/
Vermont Book Award Celebration
Saturday May 4th
7 pm
College Hall, Vermont College of Fine Arts
Montpelier, VT
This is a dessert and cocktail event, with a short program following. It's hosted by Vermont Humanities, now celebrating its 50th anniversary, so this is a particularly celebratory year for the Vermont Book Award.
Tickets are $35, or you can buy a special $100 ticket that also allows a full set of winning books to be donated to a library in need by the Vermont Department of Libraries.
If you have the means, I highly encourage you to buy the $100 tickets that also purchase a set of winning books for a Vermont library. If you don't have the means, but want to be at the event, let me know and we'll see what we can work out – some discounted and free tickets are available thanks to generous supporters. Let's all support literature and the humanities in Vermont.
