Independent Bookstore Day Crawl

We love to celebrate and support the independent bookstores in our community. This is a great opportunity to connect with other bookish friends, support independent bookshops, and have a fantastic time surrounded by stories!

🕵️‍♀️ A scavenger hunt will be provided to all participants in advance. Visit as many participating bookstores in your area as you can and check off the clues you find, it’s open to everyone across the Bay Area!✨

🏆Prizes will be available at select bookstores, but even if none are near you, completing the scavenger hunt and submitting it will enter you to win a grand prize valued at $100 in bookish goods!

📍 Location: Any Bay Area bookstore! Select participating bookstores will have special prizes for readers who pop in and mention the Bookish Bay Brigade!

Use #BookishBayBrigadeCrawl and tag @bookishbaybrigade throughout the day to be entered into raffles!

Let’s celebrate Independent Book Day the best way we know how - surrounded by books, great company, and the amazing Bay Area literary community. We can’t wait to crawl with you!
