About Us
BOOKMARKS is a nonprofit organization which offers literary experiences celebrating books and authors in and around Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Our largest -and most visible - literary experience is our annual BOOKMARKS Festival of Books which takes place on the second Saturday of September. 

To help spread the importance of reading and writing throughout the year, we work to bring authors into schools, retirement homes, and hospitals in the Piedmont area of North Carolina. Some of our authors we have hosted over the years include: Geraldine Brooks, Billy Collins, Elizabeth Gilbert, Jan Karon, Garrison Keillor, Sue Monk Kidd, Greg Mortenson, Cokie Roberts, and Lisa See. 

We recently celebrated our 7th Annual Festival of Books in the Downtown Arts District of Winston-Salem on Saturday, September 10th, where we had over 7,000 people enjoy the free festival. To learn more, please visit the About BOOKMARKS page.
