O’Brien’s Bookshop (inside Gingerbread Antiques) is happy to announce their participation in the 11th annual Independent Bookstore Day Saturday, April 27, 2024!
This year, O’Brien’s Bookshop will again offer food and a prize wheel. There will also be games and activities for the whole family, including bookstore bingo, with the chance to win some great prizes. Other surprises for the day will be announced later!
“Independent Bookstore Day is one of our favorite days. It celebrates all things independent bookstores, and it’s a chance to treat our customers and thank them for their loyal support,” says Lisa O’Brien, proprietor of O’Brien’s Bookshop.
Independent Bookstore Day was established in 2013 to promote, celebrate and highlight the value of the independent bookstore community. The day has been observed the last Saturday of April every year since 2013. This year, more than 900 bookstores across the U.S. will participate.
Independent Bookstore Day is organized by the American Booksellers Association (ABA), a national not-for-profit trade organization, which works with booksellers and industry partners to ensure the success of independently owned book retailers and expand their reach in the community.
