SUMMARY:Central Wisconsin Book Festival (CWBF)
DESCRIPTION:The Central Wisconsin Book Festival began in 2017 as an initiative of the Marathon County Public Library in Wausau\, Wisconsin\, and takes place annually around the last weekend of September. The festival remains under MCPL’s umbrella and is organized by a handful of community volunteers. In 2021\, our festival expanded to include the participation of the Portage County Public Library in Stevens Point\, WI and McMillan Memorial Library in Wisconsin Rapids\, WI. Our three libraries remain annual partners for this festival and you’ll find events in a variety of places in each city! \nThe goal of the festival is to provide book lovers in central Wisconsin a chance to hear and meet a multitude of authors—some they know\, some they don’t—over the course of several days. In addition to fostering a connection between author and audience\, our festival gives people in our communities a chance to build their own connections through their mutual passion for literature in its many forms and genres. Past events include traditional author readings and Q&As\, panel discussions\, workshops\, live storytelling events and more. Our festival is almost entirely grant funded (see our “Supporters” page)\, and all events are always free to attend! \nFor more information\, please email cwbf@mcpl.us. \nAlso: sign up for email updates and give us some input about future festivals. \nOr\, connect with us on social media:\n— Facebook: facebook.com/cwbookfest\n— Instagram: instagram.com/centralwisconsinbookfestival \n\n	\n		\n	\n		1 event found.	\n	\n		\n	\n\n		\n	\n\n		\n	\n\n	\n\n\n		\n		\n\n		\n		\n\n	\n	Events\n\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\n	\n	\n		\n	\n		\n	\n\n	\n\n\n		\n	\n		\n	\n\n	\n\n	\n\n\n	\n	Today\n\n	\n	\n		\n							\n					Upcoming				\n				\n					Upcoming				\n					\n				\n	\n\n	\n	\n		Select date.	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n	\n\n	\n	\n		\n	\n\n	\n\n\n	\n	\n	\n\n\n\n\n		\n		\n\n							\n				\n	\n		\n			September 2026		\n	\n\n\n				\n\n	\n	\n		\n			Wed		\n		\n			23		\n	\n\n\n	\n		\n			\n	\n\n\n			\n\n				\n					\n	\n		Central Wisconsin Book Festival (CWBF)	\n\n					\n		\n		Wed.\, September 23–Sun.\, September 27	\n	\n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\n	\n\n		Central Wisconsin Book Festival (CWBF)\n	\n\n\n					\n	\n		Marathon County Public Library—Wausau Headquarters	\n	\n		300 First Street\, Wausau\, WI\, United States	\n	\n	 \n	+10 more\n\n									\n\n				\n	This festival provides book lovers a chance to hear and meet a multitude of authors over the course of several days.
