Northwest Book Fair

Northwest Book Fair Join us Saturday, June 27, 2026 at Clark College - free to attend! Hi, I’m Patty Grasher. The first event was so much fun and was well attended. So . . . ta dah!

🌟 An annual event • In partnership with KXRW 99.9 FM and the Northwest Book Fair & Media Fest — celebrating books, media, and community across the Pacific Northwest. As an author since 2003, I know how challenging, rewarding, and even fun it can be to market your books. What started as a very small beginning with 23 authors in 2023 has now expanded to over 70 authors for 2026. The second event had

major problems with weather. The one and only day in August that predicted high winds and rain. It was so on again, off again that I decided future events needed to be indoors. The third event was held at the Fort Vancouver Artillery Barracks. I teamed up with KXRW.FM in Vancouver to bring about our most successful event ever. That was such an awesome place, date, time, and was visited by at a minimum of 1500 people. The only hiccup was that it was too small for future growth. I tend to be one of those people that likes things to grow. Now in 2026 we will be at Clark Community College. I hope you will come and join in the fun. Because it is very fun.
