This past weekend B and I drove down to Montgomery for the First Annual Alabama Book Festival. This year’s inaugural event was held in Old Alabama Town.

Amos Kennedy was there showing off his unique type-designed posters. Very cool stuff! Students from the Book Arts program were there as well showing off some of their projects and designs.

There were plenty of authors speaking and signing books throughout the day. Everyone from the ‘nationally known bunch’ (Bragg, Greenhaw, Hickam, etc.) and two Menasha authors, Russell Helms and Carol Padgett, took to the podium that afternoon.
Let’s hope this event just gets bigger and better every year. We posted a few pics too.
