- to increase engagement with families and schools and to attract new audiences
CBF in Meath
Every October thousands of children in Meath attend events with authors, illustrators and storytellers and engage in workshops on writing, illustration, poetry, etc.
Most events are pre-booked by school groups. And in more recent years there has been a number of events for families to enjoy together during our Family Weekend.
The children's book festival brochure is circulated to Primary schools in early September.
