- **Event Description**: We’re bringing back the magic of our childhood Scholastic Book Fairs, but making it queer!

Who didn’t love perusing the stacks of books -- while also getting out of class -- and those colorful newsletters they sent home the week beforehand, and, most importantly, discovering your next favorite read?

Our new Queerlastic Book Fair series will revive that ‘80s and ‘90s book fair energy as a celebration of LGBTQ+ literature, creativity and community.

Browse tables filled with books from local independent booksellers, meet LGBTQ+ authors from across the region, and discover artwork, zines, prints, stickers, and other creations from talented local artists and makers.
