– CHOICE A
Help our Cloud & Leaf Bookstore move the first one hundred books from the old shop to the new.
The original owner Jody will start the handoff. Book lovers will line the road between the two shops and pass the 100 books, one by one, up to Holly, the current owner waiting at the door of the new shop.
If you want to participate in this amazing Book Brigade, sign up via email cloudandleaf@gmail.com, using the subject line Book Brigade. You can also sign up at the store.
We are asking for a $10 donation from each participant upon arrival to the event. Cash is appreciated
Check-in will start at 12:30.
– CHOICE B
Another way you can help us raise money is to choose your favorite book from the shelves of Cloud & Leaf – the first one hundred to respond will have chosen the 100 books to be handed up the street. These books will be the first to be placed on the new shelves. Titles must be available at the store and will need to be picked out by October 1st. You can email your choice to cloudandleaf@gmail.com (if you know we have it in stock) or just stop in. We are asking for a $10 donation when you choose a book.
WHY PARTICIPATE?
All proceeds go toward the build-out costs, including multiple new bookcases, slatwall paneling, storage shelving, seating, et al. The expansion will offer more books, a larger children’s section, more card options, a big art supply section, and room for weekend events including music, author readings, writing workshops, art workshops, and book club meetings. The goal is to create a lovely, lively space that offers room for the community to come together around words and ideas.
Cloud & Leaf Bookstore is moving after twenty years, but we are bringing all the beautiful bookcases and lights, all the ambiance, all the charm, all the careful curation up the street with us. The bookstore ghost has agreed to come along.
