First Friday Bookstore Soft Opening

  • Fireball Printing 2644-48 Coral Street Philadelphia, PA, 19125 United States (map)

We’ve got big news! We're opening a pop-up bookstore in early May in Fishtown/East Kensington!

We’ve missed our Fishtown roots, and we see a need in the area for a community-focused bookstore that will provide curated fiction, local lit, and children’s/middle grade to the neighborhood and beyond. We want this space to be used by the community and are currently developing readings, workshops, children’s programming (story time is a must), and more!

Come out for our soft opening on #FirstFriday in May to grab a book and support your local bookstore. We’re located in the building of our friends and chapbook printers Fireball Printing, right next to the brand new Kensington Community Food Co-op.

All this is made possible by The Philadelphia Cultural Fund, Penn Treaty Special Services District and the East Kensington Neighbors Association.
