Pearl Beach Progress Association will host a range of events on April 3 to help celebrate over the Easter long weekend.

From 9am to 5pm on Saturday, April 3, the Association will host its 44th Book Fair at the Memorial Hall on Diamond Road.

The Group says it promises to offer a variety of fiction genres, non-fiction books, and children’s novels with prices starting from $2.50.

Member of the Association, Lynne Lillico said the annual event was the Group’s largest single fundraising activity with proceeds going toward the upkeep of the Memorial Hall.

“We are extremely grateful for these wonderful book donations and believe that the fair is an additional attraction for the locals and visitors to Pearl Beach,” Lillico said.

“The buzz of the crowd adds to the festive atmosphere, providing the perfect environment to search out those special book bargains.”

The Association will also present its fourth arts trail on the day with locals invited to attend the 26 venues, with a road map available for pickup at the Memorial Hall.

The Trail will feature paintings, handcrafts, sculptures, jewellery and ceramics from 28 exhibitors and will start at 10am and run till 4pm.
