The challenges of the past years have inspired us here at Rain Taxi to think boldly about how to fulfill—and deepen—our mission to champion writers, readers, and good books. Rain Taxi has broadened our reach through digital offerings in 2020 and 2021 and provided unprecedented event access to a national literary audience. Now, we're continuing to bring our biggest annual event to new heights!
Rain Taxi’s 2021 Twin Cities Book Festival returned to the Minnesota State Fairgrounds, where it once again delighted thousands of in-person visitors. This year, our hybrid format also included virtual events in the weeks leading up to the live portion, bringing our signature event to a national audience. This was an incredible and fulfilling extension of our mission, but it was also incredibly labor intensive.
Now we're seeking to raise $10,000 to help drive Rain Taxi’s 2022 Twin Cities Book Festival to readers everywhere. Achieving this goal will ensure that we have the necessary personnel, technology, and infrastructure to pull off an expansive hybrid festival in 2022 as well:
Your generosity can make all of this happen! While any amount will help us reach our goal, keep in mind that donations of $25 or more make you a Rain Taxi member, and members get Rain Taxi Review of Books delivered four times a year — it’s like getting a Book Festival in your mailbox!
In addition to our regular benefits—visit our website to see them all!—we’ve added on some perks offered only during this campaign; click DONATE to find out more. Thank you for contributing to make our reimagined bookfest a reality!
