Thanks to the support of BC 150, the West Coast Book Prize Society is thrilled to bring our ever-growing BC Book Prizes On Tour to a whole new region: The Kootenays. From April 21-25, book lovers will meet selected BC Book Prize finalists at bookstores and libraries in Nelson, Trail, Creston, Cranbrook, and Castlegar. Our authors will also visit local elementary and secondary schools, where they will leave behind a signed copy of their books for the school libraries.
These special author events are but one of many presented throughout the province in 2008 with the support of BC 150.
