Join Save School Libraries Pop-Up Library at Barracks Row Fall Festival on Sep 22!
CHPSPO is joining forces with Commissioner Brian Pate to organize a booth at the Barracks Row Fall Festival (on Saturday, September 22) in support of DC Public School librarians and libraries.
Stop by the booth between 1-4PM for a mini Pop-Up Library and book swap (a small scale version of last week’s). Thanks to Barracks Row business owners (thank you Xavier Cervera), we’ll offer refreshments, too!
If you have books to donate to the pop-up library, please drop them off at 109 13th St., SE between Wednesday and Friday of this week (there will be a box under the steps) or bring them to the festival on Saturday.
