Afternoon with Authors at the Cultural Arts Center

The Cultural Arts Council of Douglasville/Douglas County (CAC), in collaboration with host, Douglas County Connection, will present its 20th Annual Afternoon with Authors at the Cultural Arts Center on Sunday, February 15th, 2026, from 3 pm to 5 pm. This year’s event promises to be just as exciting as the last, featuring a lineup of noted local authors and poets presenting readings and performances from their respective publications.

Since 2005, the CAC has held the Afternoon with Authors event to highlight Georgia literary artists who have published books, poems, guides, or other written works. The day will be a celebration of literature, featuring readings and performances by local authors. Guests will also have the opportunity to view the CAC’s Black History Month exhibit, HigherGround. The HigherGround exhibit features inspirational artwork from twenty-four Atlanta area African American artists led by renowned Georgia artist, Charly Palmer.
