The 25th Annual Iowa Author Awards Dinner will be Thursday, Oct. 9, at the World Food Prize Hall of Laureates in downtown Des Moines. Held at the beautiful former home of the downtown library branch, this is more than an awards night – it’s a celebration of authors who make us think, readers who show up, and supporters who help open minds, improve lives, and strengthen community. Tickets go on sale July 31; that’s also the day that this year’s honorees and the celebration details will be announced. For now, save Oct. 9 on your calendar for a night of celebration!

Note: As of Oct. 6, registration for this event has closed. If you have questions, please call the Foundation office at (515) 412-0181. Thank you!
