Save the date! On Jan 31, 2026, Sharp Words returns to Bridgeworks for its fourth year! Join us at this free event to discover fabulous new books from innovative writers and publishers, to talk to authors and artists, and to celebrate writing in our city.

The book fair will be open from 11:00am to 5:00pm and will feature great independent presses, artists, comic book creators and writers along with talks about publishing, the writing life and more.

Sharp Words respects, supports and encourages the wearing of masks at our in-person events.
