Special First Ward Meeting, Re: Relocation of Bookends & Beginnings
As many of you already know, the cherished and famous independent bookstore, Bookends & Beginnings, is being forced to move from its current location in Bookman’s Alley on Sherman Avenue. Owner, Nina Barrett, will be relocating her store into a lovely space on Orrington Avenue at the end of January 2023.
I’ve been working with Nina over the past year in an effort to ensure that Bookends continues to be a part of our business community. This independent bookstore is truly a gem and a community institution in Evanston.
I’m grateful for the many emails of support for Bookends & Beginnings that I’ve received over this last week. As a result of this outpouring of support and interest, I’ve decided to hold a short, informational ward meeting through Zoom on Thurs., Dec. 8 at 6 p.m. with Nina Barrett to share information and answer questions.
Please register in advance for this meeting. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.
Together, we build a stronger community. As we all know, our small businesses matter.
