Join us May 7th at Cafe 9 from 4-7pm for a rip-roaring happy hour filled with music, friends, raffles and more! The more you give from 4-7pm, the more we stand to win in The Great Give 2026!Over the last four decades, Never Ending Books, a collective of artists and bookworms, ran a free bookstore and community venue at 810/812 State Street in New Haven, CT. In December of 2020, Roger, the last man standing, announced he would close the shop due to pandemic related financial pressures. A group of devoted NEB enthusiasts rallied around the space, raised the funds to keep it open, and picked up the lease. With guidance from Roger and deep commitment to the original Never Ending Books ethos of (literally) free expression, we have continued to provide New Haven with free books, live music, and a special space to BE.
Since our last fundraiser we have hosted hundreds of community events and added many new activities to our schedule. We have provided easy access to artists and patrons to have an outlet for their creative pursuits and connect with their community. We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit, which offers us more ways to engage with the Connecticut arts community and helps to ensure this project remains sustainable — in part by allowing us to participate in The Great Give.
Here for the weird!? When you support Volume Two in The Great Give, you sustain the collective. You are who keeps our doors open and who keeps our sets weird. Funds raised in The Great Give allow us to stay open and stay accessible as a space for creative practice and comradery. We encourage you to donate today and tell others why you love Volume Two!
