CoMo Grown-Up Book Fair
Event Description
Step back into the cherished memories of your childhood at the 4th Annual CoMo Grown-Up Book Fair!
Join us at Rose Park in Columbia, as it is transformed into the iconic setting reminiscent of beloved elementary school book fairs of the 90s, but this time tailored for the grown-up you.
Sip on a specialty cocktail and peruse the shelves of local and independent booksellers, plus other curated local vendors that will scratch your nostalgic itch.
Please note that although the event welcomes all ages to attend, it is catered towards grown-ups and may not always be kid friendly!
A portion of ticket sales will benefit the Daniel Boone Regional Library Foundation.
A Grown-Up Book Fair tote bag is included with each Early Entry ticket purchase!
