Printers Row Book Fair This city of neighborhoods offers countless street fairs, most of which offer a chance to eat, drink, shop and listen to music in the sunshine of Chicago’s wonderful summers in one of its diverse enclaves. The Printers Row Book Fair is part street fair, part gigantic outdoor bookstore and, with its readings, panels and open mics, part literary event of the highest intellectual order. Shop for books, new and used, from hundreds of bookstores from around the country, against the backdrop of the architectural museum along the 600 and 700 blocks of South Dearborn, and take the time to listen to a few authors read from their work.
