On the second Saturday in September, readers and writers come together in one place, on one day — immersed and engaged in individual and collective literary & fun experiences — to enjoy BOOKMARKS Festival of Books.

The fourth edition of BOOKMARKS is set for Saturday, September 13, 2008. It takes place in Historic Bethabara Park, the 1753 Moravian settlement site — a large, open archeological park, which is transformed into a village-like environment of large, enclosed tents housing each literary venue.

At BOOKMARKS, you'll meet authors, illustrators, chefs, storytellers, and musicians; gain insights on their works; ask questions; and, have books signed. Authors of local, regional and national renown represent the range of fiction and nonfiction. Come to see a favorite author, and find new favorites! In the culinary venue, "Food for Thought", you'll get to watch chefs demonstrate recipes from their cookbooks and enjoy the samples!
