About this Event
If you waited with bated breath each year for the annual school book fair, we have just the event for you!
Join us as we partner with Continues Arcade to host our first Grown-Up Book Fair! Come out for an evening full of exciting new reads, video games and more on Thursday, June 18, as we celebrate our 2026 Summer Reading Guides.
We'll have copies of the titles we're most excited about from our Summer Reading Guides on hand for purchase alongside a variety of bookish trinkets and treats. Our friend Kate with Hey It's Kate Photography will also be with us doing intuitive aura portraits – a fun addition that blends photography, color theory and energy reading.
All tickets include $10 in Old Town Books credit for use on purchases and 4 Continues Arcade tokens for game play, with additional tokens available for purchase. Upgraded ticket options include a complimentary drink ticket for one alcoholic beverage, or elevate your experience with VIP access to Continue’s exclusive outdoor patio takeover by Campari — featuring specialty cocktails available only to VIP guests, plus additional drink tickets.
You'll also be able to reserve your intuitive aura portrait spot on-site beginning at 6 pm. Sessions are available on a first-come, first-served basis and at an additional fee payable directly to Hey It's Kate Photography.
This event is 21+.
