The Sacramento Branch of the California Writers Club has once again held a book festival in Sacramento, at the Shepard Garden Arts Center, next to McKinley Park, on Saturday, May 31, 2025.
.
For the second year running, Sacramento had its very own book festival. The California Writers Club is excited to continue such an important event in Sacramento. We intend to develop this into an annual Sacramento Capital Experience.
Authors were available to meet the public and talk about your writing. Signed copies of their work was on sale.
It turned out to be probably the hottest day in May for many years. You could put this down to the excitement that readers and writers both felt. If anything, the event was a bit crowded. Someone said that 5000 people attended, but I seriously doubt that number. For instance, how did they count? and why be so egotistic?
I do agree that despite the heat, probably several thousand people attended.
The important thing to know is how many people still love the printed word!
Enjoy some pictures of the event…
