Found family. First crushes. Chosen names. Epic quests. Big adventures. Quiet moments. 🌈📚 This Pride Month, we're highlighting books that celebrate the many identities and experiences that make the LGBTQ+ community vibrant, diverse, and full of joy.

This month's Any Book Book Club is hosted by Sierra of Reading at the End of the World, a nonprofit dedicated to making banned books accessible.

This is a FREE community-hosted event! Donations to help the REW Library mission would be appreciated 💜

New beer cheese just dropped at Owlbear’s Rest!

This batch is made with our newest arrival from Burlington Beer Co. It’s Complicated Being A Wizard. Bold, hoppy flavor with a little citrus and just enough magic to keep you reaching for another pretzel bite.

Reverse-engineered wizardry at your fingertips, err, pretzel. Available until the cauldron runs dry.

Brindlewood Bay is back!

Step right up… if you dare. 🎪

The lights are bright, the music is lively, and the carnival has rolled into town—but something is terribly, terribly wrong.

Join us for an unforgettable night of mystery, suspense, and a touch of dark humor as we play Brindlewood Bay: Carnival Carnage! Slip into the shoes of a group of sharp-witted amateur sleuths and uncover the sinister secrets lurking beneath the glitter and greasepaint. Was it an accident… or murder under the big top?

🕵️ No experience needed—just bring your curiosity and love of storytelling
🎲 All materials provided
🆓 This is a FREE event run by community member Samantha
👥 Open to the public—friends, newcomers, and mystery lovers welcome!

▶️ Sign up to reserve your seat! 🔗 in bio

Come for the snacks, stay for the clues… and maybe solve a crime before the killer slips away.
