As the fourth largest city in the United States, Houston is home to exceptional Connect with Us: amenities such as art and music festivals, ballet, theatre, opera, and museums. One notable exception to this list was a diverse, multi-genre celebration of books. The Bayou City Book Festival fills that need by brining /bayoucitybf /bayoucitybf nationally and internationally known authors to Houston. Authors speak on behalf of their ideas, meet with attendees, and sign copies of their works. In addition to this, BCBF also works with community members, non-profits, local @bayoucitybf #StartCloseGoFar libraries, and business to develop free programming for child and adults in order to promote the importance of reading for all ages. We hope that you are as excited about the festival as we are and that you will join us for the 2017 Bayou City Book Festival during the first week of April at our many programs across Lone Star College.
