Join us for our annual Young Adult Virginia (YAVA) Award Celebration! This year our theme is "Retro Video Games" so, grab your controller and mark your calendars!

Meet and mingle with your favorite Virginia authors of young adult literature. Ask the authors your most pressing questions and get some author signatures, too! Enjoy music and snacks. And, best of all, learn the winner of this year's YAVA Award!!  

We'll hold our April 2023 YAVA celebration in a hybrid format. Participants will be able to attend in person at the Main Library or virtually via the Richmond Public Library YouTube channel. This event is free and everyone is invited!
