How to participate?

At the Social Justice Children’s Book Fair we aim to provide a space to highlight the works of  independent creators of social justice-themed children’s books. The 2025 Fair will be held in an elementary school auditorium so space is limited. Our prioritization criteria includes past participation, mission/theme alignment, fresh voices, local creators, as well as newly-published, underrepresented, and challenged works.

Aside from children’s book creators, we also dedicate space to other forms of engagement with children around social justice issues (music, performance), and non-profit projects supporting access and literacy.

A full application form is coming soon. In the meantime, if you feel your work might be a good fit for the fair and you would like to participate, please drop us a line:
