MASS BOOK AWARDS SPEAKERS BUREAU
In 2024, MCB piloted the Mass Book Awards Speakers Bureau, funding a limited number of author visits, readings, and lectures from recent prize winners. We saw an incredible response to this pilot program and have now exhausted the funds budgeted for this year. We plan to reopen for submissions in September with a new roster of 2025 Mass Book Award winners.
