SUMMARY:Author Signing: Shayla Kieneker and Jessica Miller
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Sunday July 12th\, from noon – 3 pm for a book signing by authors Shayla Kieneker & Jessica Miller. \nShayla Kieneker & Jessica Miller books blend dark romance\, emotional grit\, power dynamics\, and pulse-racing tension that lingers long after the last page. Set against the moody backdrop of Seattle\, their world is one where nothing is black and white—just tangled sheets\, twisted truths\, and characters clawing their way through trauma\, temptation\, and truth. \nKinked is a lightly dark\, smutty romance that follows Irie as she attempts to juggle her double identity as a busy Seattle Assistant and Deviant Dominatrix.

SUMMARY:Art Class: Botanical Monoprinting on the Gelli Plate
DESCRIPTION:Discover the intuitive and joyful art of botanical monoprinting in this hands-on workshop. Using a flexible gelli plate\, you will learn how to capture the delicate textures and intricate details of leaves\, ferns\, and grasses. This process allows you to create unique art prints without the need for a traditional printing press. Using a brayer to apply smooth\, even layers of acrylic paint to the gelli plate\, we’ll press our botanical items into the plate\, transferring textures and patterns onto the paper. Play with color theory\, translucency\, and layers. \nLeaves and materials will be provided\, but please feel free to bring your own botanical textures. Items will likely be destroyed in the process of printing\, and need to be able to lie flat between two pieces of paper. Other items\, like pine cones\, will create a very neat texture that looks nothing like a pinecone – but very fun all the same!

SUMMARY:Musical Act: Griefcat (including Romantasy hits)
DESCRIPTION:Known for their hit: Faeries F$%^ing\, Griefcat will be performing their hit songs. \nAbout Griefcat: \nRising musical comedy duo Griefcat emerged in 2019 as the brainchild of Annie\nNardolilli and Louisa Hall\, two songwriters from Washington\, DC whose shared wit and undeniable musical chemistry made their collaboration feel like fate. Now established as modern\, genre-hopping troubadours unafraid of sonic experimentation\, Griefcat builds on influences from Tenacious D to Dolly Parton and beyond\, infusing the result with a healthy dose of campiness and a talent for tongue-in-cheek sociopolitical commentary — a winning combination that has earned them the backing of a diverse and growing fanbase\, a standing ovation from Simon Cowell\, 100m+ social media views\, and critical acclaim from outlets including The Washington Post over a string of releases and electric live gigs to date.

SUMMARY:Ashley McLeo Author Signing
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Saturday August 22nd\, from noon – 3 pm for a book signing by author Ashley McLeo. \nAshley writes romantic fantasy novels about women and men who defy expectations\, have epic\, magical adventures\, and find love along the way. \nHere’s a synopsis of A Kingdom of Frost and Malice: \nBlood slave to courtier of the Winter fae . . . You’d think I’d moved up. \nI’m not so sure. \nThe auction block awaits and a vicious vampire prince wants me and what flows through my veins. \nSo I make a run for it\, only to end up falling at the feet of a fae warden. Technically\, Roar\, the Warden of the West should return me to the vampire court\, but he has other ideas. \nHe needs a fake fiancée. \nThe deal: if I play his dutiful partner at the Winter Court\, and help him trick the cold King of Winter\, Roar will hide me from the blood-suckers intent on draining the life from me. \nI agree\, and for a while\, it seems like nothing can go wrong. \nThat is\, until Vale\, Warden Roar’s nemesis\, sets his sights on me. \nA part of me likes the warrior prince’s attentions. Luckily\, the more sane part knows Prince Vale is not a fae to mess with. \nBesides\, I can’t dissolve my contract with Warden Roar. To do so would bring down the ire of the king and ruin my chances of earning my freedom. So I do my best to keep Roar and Vale from each other’s throats\, all the while convincing the Winter Court of my love for Roar. \nIt’s official: I’m a part of the deadly game of noble houses\, and losing could cost me everything. \nIf you like the political intrigue of Game of Thrones and the found family aspect and romances of ACOTAR\, one-click this romantic fantasy.
