The Lucy Parsons Center is an independent, non-profit, radical bookstore and community space. We are kept alive by dedicated activists who contribute their time to keeping this project on its feet. We are open from 12:30pm to 6pm from Monday through Friday, and from 1pm to 5pm on Sundays. We are occasionally also available at other times: email to find out if we're open at [email protected]. Bookstore: The Lucy Parsons Center has a well-stocked bookstore with new and used books and more than 200 magazines, newspapers, and journals, covering every wing of the progressive movement. We also carry posters, stickers, cards, and pins. There are low-priced used and bargain books in addition to new titles, Spanish-language books, and children's books. Meeting Space, Info Space: The Center offers its space free to local activist groups for meetings and events. We also receive, display, and distribute dozens of newsletters, events notices, and flyers from projects and organizations locally and around the world. In-Store Events: We draw on the many outstanding activists in the Boston area, as well as visiting progressives, to offer lectures, readings, discussions, poetry, puppetry, music, movies, and more on a wide range of issues of current relevance. Book Tables: We bring information into the community by setting up book tables and displays at conferences, demonstrations, and events around Boston. Contact us if you would like a book table at your event.
