As part of Literary Arts’ mission to engage readers and support writers, the Oregon Book Awards Author Tour brings celebrated authors to towns they might not otherwise visit and establishes connections between Literary Arts and literary organizations across Oregon. The Tammis Foundation and Roundhouse Foundation provided funding for this year’s tour. Partners on the May tour included Sea Wolf Books and the Newport Public Library.
