The Second Chapter Festival
one year ago was the official beginning of something we'd been dreaming up for a very long time.
on august 22, we're gathering to celebrate everything that's happened since.
join us for the second chapter festival, loom & lore's first birthday party: a joyful evening of books, community, creativity, and gratitude.
from our very first pop-up to dozens of events, countless book recommendations, thousands of conversations, and more hugs than we could ever count, this community has become something truly special. every person who's stepped aboard the book bus, brought a friend, suggested a favorite romance, shopped small, or simply cheered us on has helped write this chapter with us.
this celebration is for you:
✨ browse the bookmobile and discover your next favorite read
✨ get a flash tattoo from Ink Shrink Tattoo
✨ have your oracle/tarot cards read by Kelly Keyser
✨ craft your perfect clay or charm jewelry from DELLA Jewelry & Co.
✨ bring yourself joy with houseplants, candles, stained glass and knick knacks from Collective Plant Co., Ivory & Lime and Violet Seays
✨ customize an arrangement at the bouquet bar by Ginger Birch
✨ browse bookish goodies by Readers Leisure
✨ up your self-care game with FAVORYT BRAND
✨ shop handmade stationery and more by Elizabeth Kirsteatter
✨ delight in unique surprises, giveaways and experiences
