Independent Bookstore Day
media release: Eight bookstores in the Madison area will celebrate Independent Bookstore Day on Saturday April 27th, 2024 by offering specials, raffle prizes, and a free commemorative art print.
Independent Bookstore Day (a.k.a. Indie Bookstore Day or IBD) was established in 2013 by the American Booksellers Association (ABA) to promote, celebrate, and highlight the value of the independent bookstore community. This year there are over 900 stores participating across the country. Eight indie bookstores in the Madison area have teamed up to offer the following deals to our community:
RAFFLE: For each store visited, shoppers can enter a raffle to win a $50 or $25 gift card to one of the eight participating stores. You can have up to 8 entries in the raffle if you visit all 8 stores! The week after the event, 16 winners will be chosen at random, with 8 winners receiving a $50 gift card and 8 winners receiving a $25 gift card.
FREE ART PRINT: As a keepsake for shoppers visiting any of our stores on IBD, we commissioned a commemorative 5x7 inch print by local artist Keith Huie (https://www.facebook.com/
SPECIALS: In addition to the collaborations mentioned above, each store will have its own unique specials.
