Adelphi sponsors local book festival
October 5, 2018
At Adelphi, we love getting involved with our local community, which is why we are sponsoring the lovely Cuckfield Book Festival!
Cuckfield’s first ever book festival was born out of a discussion over a glass of wine one Friday evening in the summer of 2016. The organisers felt that Cuckfield would be the perfect venue for a small festival to celebrate books and reading. Now in its second year, the programme is enticingly varied and this year for the first time includes an entire day of special sessions for children and young people.
The Cuckfield Book Festival is an annual literary event that brings together book enthusiasts, authors, and the local community in the charming town of Cuckfield, West Sussex. This festival stands as a celebration of literature, offering a platform for both established and emerging authors to share their works and insights with an engaged audience. The Cuckfield Book Festival typically features a diverse range of literary genres, ensuring there’s something for everyone, from fiction and non-fiction to poetry and children’s literature. Attendees have the opportunity to participate in author talks, panel discussions, book signings, and various interactive literary activities. The festival’s warm and welcoming atmosphere, coupled with its picturesque setting, makes it a must-attend event for those who appreciate the transformative power of words and storytelling. The Cuckfield Book Festival not only promotes a love for literature but also contributes to the cultural richness of the community, fostering a shared appreciation for the written word.
Running from 4th – 7th October, and with events including a literary quiz, discussion seminars and a supper at Ockenden Manor, there really is something for everyone at this wonderful local event which is piquing interest from within the Cuckfield community and beyond!
