Jolabokaflod 2020

Online N/A, Portland, OR, United States

An annual celebration of Jolabokaflod, the Icelandic Yule Book Flood! While Icelanders celebrate on Christmas Eve Portland will be celebrating in late December. This year, it will be online, as the world is uncertain and we want everyone to feel safe and enjoy their holidays! The event is all about celebrating and supporting local Pacific Northwest indie authors. When it’s in person, it’s a book fair with many author and bookish vendors with music and spirits. 2020 will take us in a different direction. More on this to come, but you’ll still get to learn about new authors, hear about their books, their inspiration, and connect with fellow literary minded folk (should that aspect appeal to you). Please join us to support PNW authors and…
