About this Event

The Capital Rare Book Fair will bring antiquarian booksellers from across the country to Washington DC's historic University Club, just steps from the White House. The fair will bring together thousands of books, maps, prints and historic documents on a range of topics and at different price points.

About the venue: Established in 1904 simply as the University Club, its first president was then Secretary of War and future United States President William Howard Taft. In 1936, it merged with the Racquet Club of Washington, and moved to its current location at 1135 Sixteenth Street NW, approximately three blocks north of the White House.

Tickets are $15. Your ticket gives you unlimited access to the fair on Saturday and Sunday. Students are $10 and under 16s go for free.
