Books Are Magic, which launched in Brooklyn, N.Y.'s Cobble Hill neighborhood in 2017, will host a grand opening celebration for its second location tomorrow, Saturday, November 5, at 122 Montague St. in Brooklyn Heights. Co-owners Emma Straub and Michael Fusco-Straub announced plans for the new bookshop in July.
Describing Saturday's events as "the most magical store opening imaginable," Books Are Magic noted that the festivities will include "book signings and meet-and-greets with some of our favorite local authors.... Not only will you be able to hang out with these fantastic authors, you will also have the chance to make your own Books Are Magic merch! Choose your own colors and patterns and create your own unique mural design. We can't wait to come to Brooklyn Heights--hope to see you there!"
Books Are Magic's new location "also features a brand new hidey hole in our kids section, and we're looking for a teen artist to paint it! The winning artist will receive a $200 stipend from Books Are Magic and a $50 Gift Card from Artist & Craftsman Supply."
