Rose City Book & Paper Fair to be Held June 14-15 in Portland, Oregon
- by Michael Stillman
The Rose City Book & Paper Fair will be back in Portland, Oregon, this month. The dates this year are Friday and Saturday, June 14-15. Hours on Friday are 2:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. Saturday hours are 10:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. Admission is $5 at the door.
The location is the same as last year:
DoubleTree at Lloyd Center
1000 NE Multnomah
Portland, Oregon
The motto for this year's fair is “Go Bananas for Books.” That motto is not as bananas as it sounds. It's actually quite logical. There are three different Portland authors who have written children's picture books about bananas, Carrie Tillotson, Zoey Abbott, and Kate Berube. The fair will be giving away signed copies of their books to the first 25 children ages 8 and under to arrive each day. Two of the authors will be there Saturday from 11:00-1:00 to sign additional books.
Over 60 exhibitors will be displaying their material. The fair organizers say they “will be showing their most interesting used, rare, and collectible books, prints, vintage photos, magazines, and more.”
The fair is put on by the Cascade Booksellers Association and sponsored by Abebooks and the Pacific Northwest Chapter of the Antiquarian Booksellers’ Association of America.
