The South Texas Book Festival is designed expressly for children and teens! It will be held at the McAllen Main Library, and is a free event open to the public featuring a diverse group of national, regional, and local youth authors. The authors will participate in readings, panel discussions, and book signings. We will also have fun outdoor activities, book sales, and food!
We are looking for volunteers to help with:
- Registration tables
- Children's Activities
- Author hospitality
- Book Giveaway Area
- Bouncy Houses
- Storybook Garden Book Sales assistants
- Greeters/Information Booth
- Traffic assistance
- Setting up Tents
- Breaking down Tents
This exciting, family-friendly community literacy day is always a blast! All Volunteers will receive snacks and drinks. Volunteer orientation sessions will also be provided ahead of time.
Thank you to all who volunteered your time and efforts. We are no longer accepting new volunteer applications.
