Boozy Book Fair

Remember the magic of elementary school book fairs, where rows of books sparked imagination and adventure? Now picture that nostalgia reimagined for grown-ups with cocktails or mocktails, community, and a cause! On December 12, from 6-8 PM, Wiggly Bridge Distillery and The Booktenders are teaming up for the very first Boozy Book Fair, a one-of-a-kind event blending books, beverages and holiday cheer.

Browse a curated selection of books, meet local authors such as Jody Clark and Diane Kane, and get your books signed—perfect for gifting (or keeping for yourself!).

Sip on a signature cocktail or mocktail crafted by the award-winning Wiggly Bridge Distillery team.

This event is also a food drive! Bring along non-perishable food items to benefit the York Community Service Association and help make the holidays brighter for families in need. Tickets are $10 and include entry and one complimentary drink, but if you bring 10 non-perishable food items for the York Food Pantry, you’ll enjoy free entry along with a complimentary drink.

Want to help make an even bigger impact? The attendee who donates the most non-perishable items will win a private batch blending clinic for up to four people at Wiggly Bridge Distillery—over a $350 value! Learn directly from the founder about the craftsmanship and care that goes into each batch of their award-winning spirits. The runner up will receive a $100 gift card to The Booktenders.

Tickets are just $10, and space is limited, so don’t wait to secure your spot. If you plan to donate 10 non-perishable food items for the Food Pantry as your ticket, please let us know in advance so we can add your name to the guest list! Tickets include entry, one cocktail or mocktail, and access to this unique event that’s part nostalgia, part celebration, and all heart.
