Book Fest update from Kevin McFadden

Hello from VABook News!

The festival is “in swing” right now at the Omni Hotel, where we’re now listening to the Flashbacks jazz stylings fill the lobby, and are about to hear Jan Karon at the Festival luncheon (11:45AM). (LUNCHEON TIP: Spare tickets for last-minute cancellations are known to pop up for those who lurk …Jan Karon fans bring $45)

Hope to see you tonight at our Culbreth Theater events this evening:

  • 6PM* Greg Mortenson, Three Cups of Tea (*free tickets handed out from 5PM while they last)
