🎈As the United States marks the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, debates over whose stories are remembered — and whose are left out — continue to shape how Americans understand the nation's past.

Yesterday, Megan appeared on the Jefferson Exchange discussing historical titles (both fiction and non-fiction) that help us understand the current moment, along with the people, places, and ideas that have shaped our narratives to this point.

Be sure to listen to the conversation, and if you're hungry for even more historical reading, swing by the store for some personalrecommendations! ✒️📕

We have some very exciting news to share ✨

The sculpture Never Again by local artist Christian Burchard , which has been gracing our window, has been officially accepted into the Homo Faber Biennial by the Michelangelo Foundation in Venice.

We feel incredibly proud—and deeply grateful—to have had the chance to live with this powerful work in our space, even for a short time. It’s an honor to see it recognized on such an international stage.

If you haven’t stopped by to see it yet, come take a moment with it today before it travels on.

Congratulations, Christian—and thank you for letting us be part of its journey. 🤍
