One educational institution is selected every year to host the May Hill Arbuthnot Lecture. The Sacramento Public Library is honored to present award-winning, multi-format and genre transcending author Neil Gaiman in partnership with The Association for Library Service to Children.
Join us as we host Neil Gaiman on May 8, 2020 at the Wells Fargo Pavilion in Sacramento. Mr. Gaiman will be giving a lecture entitled "Why Don't You Write Real Books?"
This event is FREE but does require registration due to limited capacity and boundless interest. No backpacks are allowed inside the facility.
Doors open at TBD time.
Neil Gaiman is an author of short fiction, novels, comic books, graphic novels, nonfiction, audio theatre, and films. His works include the comic book series The Sandman and novels Stardust, American Gods, Coraline, and The Graveyard Book. He has won numerous awards, including the Hugo, Nebula, and Bram Stoker awards, as well as the Newbery and Carnegie medals. He is the first author to win both the Newbery and the Carnegie medals for the same work, The Graveyard Book. The Association for Library Service to Children (ALSC) is the world's largest organization dedicated to the support and enhancement of library service to children. More at www.ala.org/alsc.
