Hey Kids!

From Spider-man to Shakespeare and baseball to ballet, the 2009 Festival offered many great events just for you. Kids enjoyed special readings by local celebrities and Arkansas authors during Literacy & Lunch on the Lawn at the the Arkansas Governor's Mansion, listened to a 13 year old author with two books on presidential trivia, practiced origami skills, watched a puppet show, learned about a Bermuda lizard and so much more.

Authors and events for the 2010 Festival will be announced in March, so check back then for a list of who you'll get to see.

All of the programs for kids are FREE, so tell your parents to bring you downtown!
