Authors Tupelo Hassman, Christina Schwarz, Janice Steinberg and Helene Wecker, whose works span fiction, non-fiction and plays, will discuss their creations with guests in an intimate setting, answer questions and autograph their works.
Jan Sanders, director of the Pasadena Public Library system will serve as the opening speaker.
Tickets are $95 per guest and include lunch. Patron-reserved tables of 10 are $1,500.
Also offered is a new feature at the event called "Be a Better Reader: Creative Exercises for the Art of Reading," where guests will learn journaling techniques, practice free reading strategies and talk with fellow readers.
