Ohioana’s 80th Anniversary

Thursday, October 15th, 2009

Ohioana is celebrating our 80th Anniversary. Today, we were featured on the front page of the Arts/Life section of the Columbus Dispatch.   Check out the article here.

The 2009 Ohioana Awards are quickly approaching (this weekend!).  You can still make reservations until the end of business today (October 15), so we hope to see you there!

2009 Ohioana Book Festival Featured in The Columbus Dispatch

Sunday, May 3rd, 2009

With less than a week to go until the big day, the Ohioana Book Festival has been featured in a great article in the Sunday, May 3 edition of The Columbus Dispatch.

Nancy Gilson’s article, Fountain of Talent, gives a complete overview of the event, taking place this coming Saturday, May 9, at the State Library of Ohio Building on East 1st. Avenue in Columbus.

“Fountain of Talent” gives a thorough rundown of the varied schedule of events for each featured author during this busy and fun-filled week. All of the featured authors will be participating in community outreach events around central Ohio, not just at the book festival.

“Not all the people who love books can get to the festival, so we’ve asked our featured authors to do some community outreach,” “It’s a way for us to extend the festival experience.”

–Ohioana executive director Linda Hengst, from the article.

More information about the community outreach events will be forthcoming.

Thank you to Nancy Gilson and the Dispatch for their continuing support of Ohioana and the Ohioana Book Festival.
