Let’s celebrate children’s literature in all its glory with the 27th edition of the South Ken Kids Festival, a festival bursting with activities for the whole family.
Entirely bilingual, multilingual at times, this edition will be a treat for fans of literature and illustration of all ages with a tremendous line-up of authors and artists from both sides of the Channel and beyond: Axel Scheffler, Posy Simmonds, Joanne Harris, Joseph Coelho, Patrice Lawrence, Timothée de Fombelle, Marie-Aude Murail, Jean-Luc Fromental, Joëlle Jolivet, Bridget Marzo, Amandine Piu, Béatrice Rodriguez, Chloe Savage, Joséphine Seblon, Robert Hae-Seng, Massimo Fenati and many others will join us, under the ever-generous patronage of our beloved Quentin Blake.
The French Institute throws open its doors to all readers, young and old, to enjoy children’s and young adult’s literature, comic books, graphic novels, films and music. Au programme : storytelling, live drawing, workshops, talks, screenings, concerts and book signings!
All welcome!
With special thanks to the Bressler Foundation for its generous support to the festival.
