All Dine & Rhyme proceeds support BOA's mission to bring exceptional and essential works of literature to the public.
A Dine & Rhyme Sponsorship is a great way for businesses, organizations, and universities to show their support for BOA and independent publishing! Dine & Rhyme Sponsors reach an audience of arts supporters and community leaders at the event and via BOA’s robust web presence.
