Make plans now to attend YAK Fest, the Fifth Annual Young Adult Book Festival at Keller High School.
Hear from 29 amazing YA authors such as Julie Murphy (keynote speaker), Michael Buckley, Jessica Brody, Lauren Oliver, Robison Wells, Kimberly Derting, Lindsay Cummings, Victoria Scott, Alex London, and many more! There will also be workshop rooms devoted to writing stories, writing poetry, storytelling, and anime illustration. Check out the YAK Fest website to see a list of all the authors and the schedule for the day.
YAK Fest is FREE and open to all middle and high school students and adults that love to read YA literature. Remember to bring money to purchase books, food, drinks, and t-shirts. Food trucks will be on site to sell BBQ, pizza, and sandwiches. More food and drinks will be available for purchase inside the school so plan to eat your morning snack, lunch, and dessert at YAK Fest.
Visit our website for more details about the event, including a complete list of authors, the schedule, and pictures from previous YAK Fests.
