The Fountain Bookshop is celebrating their Official Grand Opening the week of April 21-27, tying in with National Independent Bookstore Day on April 26th! The store is hosting a full week of events, including a Local Author’s “Signing Party”, on Tuesday, April 22 from 5pm–7pm. The event is free to attend.
The event is located at 803 W 187th St., NY, NY 10033
Join us at The Fountain Bookshop for an inspiring author talk, Q&A, and signing with Gabrielle Bendiner-Viani, author of The Cities We Need: Essential Stories of Everyday Places.
In this powerful exploration of Brooklyn and Oakland and the importance of community spaces everywhere, Bendiner-Viani blends photography and prose, sharing the stories of residents who give us a personal, intimate view of their neighborhoods. Through their eyes, we witness the vital, often overlooked places that shape our cities – and sometimes, are lost to gentrification and displacement.
Don’t miss this chance to hear from the author herself about the making of this evocative book!
