Turning the Page Back to School Book Festival
August 29, Sat Aug 23 10-5pm Add to Calendar
It’s time for back to school, and time for books from our favorite bookstore pop-up! Carpe Librum, supporting their non-profit Turning the Page, is hosting a one-day sale on the Marketplace Plaza.
Shop for used books, CDs, DVDs, and vinyl. The space will be filled with thousands of high-quality used books of all genres, for all ages. All items are $7 or less and proceeds support local non-profit, Turning the Page. Turning the Page is a nonprofit that engages public school families for student success; collecting and selling donated used books is one way they raise capital for their programs and has been working with DC families since 1998, providing family engagement and literacy development programming. Learn more about Turning the Page and Carpe Librum’s book sales here.
Come to the Marketplace on August 29 from 10 am to 5 pm and browse through 4000+ movies, music, adult books, and children’s books.
