Event Spotlight: Printers Row Lit Fest

It's time once again for the premier literary event in Chicago: the Printers Row Lit Fest. Stretching over both Saturday and Sunday, the Fest will feature numerous publishers and book sellers, both local and throughout the country, featuring their wares and a wealth of authors reading from and discussing their works. This year's Fest will feature the likes of Dave Eggers, Neil Gaiman, Chris Ware and Elizabeth Berg, just to name a few. You can view the full schedule of events here. Keep in mind that some of the big name author events are ticketed (admission is free) and while some of the events have sold out, there's always the possibility that they'll have some last minute empty seats, so it never hurts to stake out the venue if you weren't able to get a ticket to see an author you love. Come check back with us later this week when we'll have our full Book Club guide to the Fest, highlighting some of the notable local authors, sellers and organizations. For questions about the Fest, call 312-222-3986 or email ctc-events[at]tribune[dot]com.
