Become a Friend of the Festival

When does reading become a party? When you’re at the Fall for the Book Festival! Kicking off this year’s festivities is our Double Your Dollar campaign. That means for all of August, every dollar you contribute to our book festival will be automatically doubled: $10 becomes $20, $150 becomes $300.

Your impact goes twice as far.

Every giving level comes with its own perks, from recognition online and in print, to our Patron levels and up, which give you reserved seating and exclusive access to the most novel of happy hours with the likes of book club favorite Celeste Ng and horror icon Stephen Graham Jones. For over a quarter century, Fall for the Book has brought fun for the whole family to Fairfax. Last year alone, we reached over 10,000 attendees and viewers, all for free. 

Your gift helps support the literary arts, and boosts our effort to bring dozens of authors from across the country to showcase their work. As a festival where audiences gather to celebrate writers they love—and discover new favorites—Fall for the Book is as determined to be your best literary party ever.
