AJC Decatur Book Festival Appears in Creative Loafing as Top 10 Summer Event

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Decatur Book Festival––presented by DeKalb Medical––was recently featured in an article for Creative Loafing Atlanta, the second-most broadly distributed newspaper in Georgia.

The May 23 article, titled “The best 10 for the best summer,” listed the 2007 Decatur Book Festival as a superior metro Atlanta area event.

“It is great to see that everyone is as excited about this year’s festival as we are,” said Daren Wang, Executive Director of the AJC-DBF.

The 2007 AJC-DBF will be held Labor Day weekend in the downtown Decatur Square. The festival will feature 200 world-class authors, keynote addresses by Charles Frazier, best-selling author of Cold Mountain, and Kinky Friedman, American singer-songwriter, novelist, humorist, and politician, a children’s stage along with children’s activities, live music and poetry, and cooking demonstrations led by celebrity chefs.
