Maine Book Festival

Join us for the 6th Annual Maine Book Festival (formerly the Maine Authors Book Festival) on August 23, 2025, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Thomaston Public Library and sponsored by Maine Authors Publishing! This year’s theme is Woods and Waters, and we’re excited to celebrate the natural beauty and outdoor heritage of Maine. For all Maine Guides, Maine Game Wardens, Foresters, Park Rangers, and Outdoor Professionals, wear your uniform and/or patches for a special prize and automatic entry into our raffle. The festival will include signings by over 100 authors, presentations, live music by Don Roy, an open studio with Maine artists, and a Maine Department of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife booth to answer all your wildlife questions. There will also be a children’s area with a scavenger hunt, food for sale from Station 118, and ice cream from Stone Fox Farm Creamery. A portion of the proceeds from book sales and the basket raffle will benefit the Thomaston Public Library. For more information, visit www.mainebookfestival.com.
