The Summer Book Fair is a great chance to meet and talk with local San Miguel authors and to buy their books directly from them. Stop by on August Saturday 20 and mingle with your neighbors, listen to mini-author-readings, and enjoy a delicious coffee and snack.
In addition to local authors, the fair will also feature several San Miguel artisans who will be selling their jewelry, maps, cards, textiles and other items directly to the public.
To get there: Hotel Aldea is on Ancha San Antonio, close to where it meets Zacateros. Walk through the beautiful Hotel Aldea courtyard all the way to the back. You’ll see signs directing you upstairs to the Book Fair.
