Who of us hasn't spent their adult life chasing the joy of the book fair? You pinned on that Book It button with well deserved satisfaction, effortlessly won that personal pan pizza reading prize, and can still summon the smell of a fresh stack of Scholastic Book Fair catalogs delivered to your elementary school classroom. You're not alone! Burlington Parks, Recreation & Waterfront (BPRW) is bringing the childhood thrill of book fairs back to adults on Saturday, April 5th at The ONE Community Center in Burlington.
Join us for our spring fundraiser, Throwback: A Grown-Up Book Fair! Independent bookseller Phoenix Books is bringing the nostalgia of your favorite school book fair, with both current and "vintage" great reads and gifts for kids and adults!
Immerse yourself in a full throwback experience, including:
Retro Theme Photo Booth, complete with that one school photo backdrop we all had
Bar featuring Adult Capri Suns + a literary-style cocktail/mocktail or two as well
Grab and go food (think Adult Lunchables!)
Video wall with all your favorites from the heyday of MTV (remember videos?) and classic sitcoms too
Competitive Mad Libs, UNO and old school puzzle tables
…and much more. Full details to be announced soon!
Your ticket supports the programs and services of Burlington Parks, Recreation & Waterfront, and a portion of proceeds from all tickets and tote bags will also benefit our friends at the Fletcher Free Library!
Session One: 1:30pm-4:30pm Families welcome
Session Two: 5:00pm-8:00pm 18+ Only
