Meet Your Favorite Authors
Seattle’s University Book Store, one of the Northwest’s foremost booksellers, has teamed with the show to operate our popular Book Signing Station. It is conveniently located in the Conference Center next to the Rainier Room, Hood Room and DIY Stage. Simply go down the escalator or elevator to the Conference Center to hear your favorite speakers, and the Book Signing Station is right nearby.
After their seminar, authors head to the Book Signing Station to greet audience members, sign books and answer questions. You can purchase books at the University Book Store Book Signing Station and have them autographed by your favorite speakers. We will have 74 book signings this year – more than ever before! Autographed books make great gifts for your garden-loving friends.
If you’re taking the family to see our musical entertainment on the Sprout Stage, our musicians will be selling their CD’s after their performances.
Here are some of our speakers’ books for your garden library (click on a book to view the full photo, and scroll to the bottom to view the entire schedule).
