The 5th Filipino American International Book Festival is happening this weekend October 12 – 13, 2019 at the Main Branch of the San Francisco Public Library on 100 Larkin Street. The festival is organized by the Philippine-American Writers and Artists, Inc (PAWA) http://pawainc.com/.
This year’s theme is “Isang Mundó (One World): Humanity, Diversity, and Resistance in the Arts”. The keynote speaker is Jose Antonio Vargas, author of Dear America: Notes of an Undocumented Citizen, and founder of Define American, a nonprofit media and culture organization that uses the power of story to transcend politics and shift the conversation about immigrants, identity, and citizenship in a changing America.
Children’s programming includes Christina from Sari Sari Storybooks, Ramon Abad, Eric Tigley, Justine from Sawaga River Press, and many more!
