The dates of the Book Arsenal festival have become known

This year, the 13th “Book Arsenal” will be held from May 29 to June 1. Yale University professor Marcy Shor and writer Oksana Forostyna will be curators of the focus topic. About this reported on the event’s official website.

The festival will traditionally include a rich program and a book fair, which will be located on the first floor of the Old Arsenal. Within the framework of the “Book Arsenal” there will be events of the main program, focus topics, children’s and teenagers’ sections, as well as professional events.

“This year, Book Arsenal will be held for the thirteenth time, and we will make every effort to make it the place for the most important conversation that makes Arsenal so special and beloved. It is the place where like-minded people meet, the combination of arts and experiences, the place of joy and shared sadness, the place of reflection on the most difficult issues that affect everyone in Ukraine.

I am very grateful to Marcy and Oksana for their work on the focus topic: having the privilege of observing the work process, I am sure that this will be a deep and at the same time global in its breadth conversation. We will announce the topic itself soon – in March.” Olesya Ostrovska-Lyuta, general director of the Art Arsenal, said.

The annual “Book Arsenal Fellowship Program” will work separately – a professional program for foreign publishers and literary agents, which promotes international cooperation in the field of book publishing, introduces Ukrainian literature and expands connections between specialists from different countries.
