Learn MoreNovel Idea regularly partners with Kingston WritersFest to sell books at this important community organization's events—not only KWFS annual fall festival but also WritersFest presentations throughout the year. We sell advance tickets to many of these events.
Novel Idea is a supporter of Bruce Kauffman's radio show "finding a voice"—a showcase of spoken-word events from the Kingston area, including audio recordings of events held at our store. Bruce's program is broadcast weekly, Fridays 4pm-5pm EST on Kingston's campus and community radio station CFRC 101.9FM.
We actively participate in local community events throughout Kingston and the region. Whether it's a craft fair, festival, or charity event, we're proud to bring books and support to gatherings where readers congregate.
We'd love to host your book signing, reading, or event at Novel Idea.
