Bestselling author A.G. Billig and Stardust Books in partnership with Copper Cactus invite the Verde Valley community to celebrate love on Nov. 26 from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m., at the bookstore’s location on 907 Main St., Clarkdale.

Grammy-winning music producer Rae DiLeo and recording artist Miguel Montoya will make special guest appearances.

A Celebration of Love is designed as a heart-opening interactive experience where the participants can connect with the power of love. Billig of “I Choose Love: A Journey from Fear to Love” will share stories about love, read from her book, and also sign books. Her special guests, Miguel Montoya and Rae DiLeo will add the healing sound of loving music. The event also includes a raffle with prizes filled with love and personalized love messages for every participant.

“Each action we take is based on fear or love. Although we have no control over external circumstance, we can always choose to respond based on love or react based on fear. Choosing love and remembering we are love again and again is the answer to the challenges the humanity is facing today,” Billig says.

The event is free to attend, but donations are welcome.
