A Novel Idea: Bookstore Fundraiser & Reading
South Philadelphia residents Alexander Schneider and Christina Rosso-Schneider are opening A Novel Idea, an independent bookstore in East Passyunk, this winter.
A Novel Idea will feature both new and used books, as well as offer a variety of events. The goal is that it will become a place known for great books, merchandise, and events, but also a space where community is fostered. Alexander and Christina are kicking things off with a fundraiser & reading event at Tattooed Mom!
Any contributions or donations are greatly appreciated–whether they be gently used books, monetary donations, or purchases at the event.
Admission is free.
