If you are interested in hosting a vetted performer, please contact them with scheduling inquiries prior to submitting an event application. Many performers will adapt their programs to the audience or tailor them to tie in with summer reading program themes, holidays, or current events. You are encouraged to reach out to them to request such modifications and clarify expectations on both sides. Once you have confirmed a date and time you can proceed with the application.
