Detroit Festival of Books (aka: Detroit Bookfest) is dedicated to promoting the joy of reading and the rich culture surrounding it.
We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
The creation of Bookfest was partly inspired by:
Countless hours wandering John K. King Used & Rare Books
Exercises & shenanigans in Larry Francis‘ Room 219
Frank Raines amazing Funk Night parties in Detroit
Collectively banishing the Nain Rouge every year at the Marche du Nain Rouge
and Detroit’s uncrushable fighting spirit
