Reopening at new location!
We will be officially opening at 11 AM on Wednesday, September 23rd in our new location at 1103 N Riverside Avenue.
We have a project list longer than The Odyssey - we’re taking it as a marathon, not a sprint. Colors will be added, lighting will be updated, and we’ll add more & more signage as sections become increasingly defined. Please be patient as our team learns their way around and the chaos *slowly* transforms into organization.
Join us as we write the next chapters in our Village of Books!
