About Latinx Kidlit Book Festival, Inc.

The Latinx KidLit Book Festival was created in 2020 during the COVID pandemic by members of Las Musas Books. Our aim was to connect Latinx authors and illustrators with readers and educators in classrooms around the globe. Since then, and with the help of countless volunteers, the festival has continued to foster a love of story and literacy as well as increase empathy and conversation among educators, students, and book lovers while uplifting the voices of Latinx kidlit book creators.

 

We thank the many volunteers who have shared our vision for this beautiful event and have given their time, energy, and talents to make it a reality. The Latinx Kidlit Book Festival is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization funded by the generosity of our sponsors and donors.

These are some of the bids.

The festival was created by Las Musas, a collective of Latinx women and otherwise marginalized people whose gender identity aligns with femininity, writing and/or illustrating in traditional children's literature. We thank the many volunteers who have shared our vision for this beautiful event and have given their time, energy, and talents to make it a reality.
