    The Queens Book Festival, debuting on August 7, 2016, will be the largest and most inclusive literary gathering in Queens. It will fill the borough with literary talks from over 100 authors as well as hundreds of exhibits within a walkable venue. Our main goal is to promote literacy in Queens, while simultaneously supporting the artist and writer communities within Queens, forging connections within the community, and supporting local commerce.
