Here’s a peek at what’s coming up…

Renowned illustrator Qin Leng will make her authorial debut at our eleventh annual TOTSAPALOOZA Festival of picture book authors, indie bands and DIY crafts on Saturday, February, 2, 2019. Early Bird Tickets are now available: click here.

To tide you over until this year’s show, here’s a look at last year’s 10th Anniversary Gala:

From KidLit icons Dennis Lee and Barbara Reid jamming with veteran indie-rock musicians Communism and The Woodshed Orchestra to vibrant performances by Fay and Fluffy’s Drag Queen Storytime and acclaimed author Nadia L. Hohn  – the 10th annual TOTSAPALOOZA Festival on Saturday, February 3 at Revival was an extraordinary celebration of our decade milestone.  Small Printers Jenn Catanzaro and Shana Hillman captured the big day in photos (above).
