Guide to the 2021 Virtual Gaithersburg Book Festival
Another year, another Gaithersburg Book Festival (GBF). But for the second year in a row, the festival will operate virtually.
Gaithersburg Mayor Jud Ashman, the founder of the popular event, spoke to MyMCM about what to expect at this year’s Virtual Gaithersburg Book Festival:
The Virtual Gaithersburg Book Festival begins Saturday, May 1 and there will be activities for four consecutive weeks. All author discussions (listed below) will premiere on the GBF’s YouTube page. Most programs are prerecorded, but authors will participate in the YouTube Premiere chat discussions.
The first two weeks of programming will be geared toward adults and the final two weeks of programming are aimed at children and young adults.
