upcoming events

The SFWA is looking forward to being a vendor at the upcoming Book Club Fair on April 11th at Pinecrest Gardens, 10am-3pm,
where we will feature our members' books at our vendor table. The Friends of the Miami-Dade Public Library’s Book Club
Fair is a lively celebration of books and readers, bringing together bestselling authors, book clubs, and literary
organizations for a day of conversation and discovery. Explore new reads, hear from favorite authors, and connect with fellow
book lovers—all while supporting library programs that expand access to reading and learning across our community.

If you'd like your book featured (one of our wonderful membership perks!), please bring a copy to give to Amy Naim
at either the March 7th or April 4th meeting, along with contact info/ways to buy your book. If you cannot attend either
meeting, you are welcome to drop your book off to Amy personally (email: amynaim@gmail.com to arrange). General
admission is Free, but you can also purchase an all-access pass or tickets to see individual authors. We hope to see you
there! Here is a link for details about the event and to buy tickets.
