Speakers Bureau

The Colorado Center for the Book Speakers Bureau brings experienced, engaging local authors to cultural centers and schools throughout Colorado. We help organizations identify the kind of literary event that is right for their community, book one of our Speakers Bureau authors, and promote the event. Organizations then schedule the event directly with the author, contribute an honorarium and/or travel expense reimbursement to bring the author to their community, and work with others in their community to promote the event. Colorado Humanities contracts with the speakers and provides honoraria to help organizations host events.

Our 2021 speakers include 2021 Colorado Book Awards finalists and winners. They can read from their work, lecture, facilitate conversations, lead workshops, or join book club discussions about their work.

Our mission at the Colorado Center for the Book is to encourage a love of reading and books among people of all ages through diverse cultural activities. For more information, contact Josephine Jones, 303.894.7951 x15, fax 303.864.9361, jones@coloradohumanities.org.
