Events › Author Talk & Typewriter Workshop with Allie Millington

We invite you to the Art of the Picture Book festival, a partnership with the City of Alpharetta and the Alpharetta Arts Center.

Come meet Allie Millington, the author of the middle grade novel Olivetti. She will do a presentation on her writing process and how she created the world of Olivetti. Allie’s first book was featured on the Indie Bookstore Bestseller and USA Today Bestseller lists. There will be typewriters for you to try out! Maybe they will talk back to you, who knows?

“Set a typewriter out on a table with a sheet of paper pre-rolled into its carriage, and wait. Nearly every child, and many adults, will be drawn to the beauty and specificity of the machine.” - Tom Hanks.
