We got so many new shelves in the office at Celia! You will never see them, but it’s where we keep all the extra books.

Experience an enchanting evening presented by the Merchants of Swarthmore featuring local shopping, delicious food, and music. Attendees are encouraged to wear their favorite attire as costumes are welcome for this festive night of Halloween fun.

The Fall market is taking place Friday, October 23rd from 5-8pm. The fall market always has a fun, fall festival feel with a little bit of Halloween mixed in. We will host makers, small businesses, food, music, face painting, trick or treating, crafts courtesy of Of Aspen, a live pumpkin carving demonstration and more! The pop up vendors include a collection of local jewelry makers of all ages, crafters, candle makers, and print artists.
Many local businesses will be open late and ready to greet you! The Swarthmore Co-op will host a Patio Happy Hour, live music, and a yummy Halloween Inspired kids craft from 5:30-7:30PM. Heart + Soul’d will be hosting additional pop up makers, so be sure to stop by to check out their amazing shop plus meet Krooked Childhood and Nettie and Me. Harvey Oak Mercantile and Gallery on Park will host a sale on sale that will be so good it’s scary!

There will be so much food to choose from. Luna’s Mexican Grill will have indoor and outdoor dining and drink options. Five food trucks will be on site with many savory dishes. The market will also welcome Newtown Square’s Jerry’s Pickles and feature Divine’s Tomato Pies.

HAPPENING NOW THROUGH OCTOBER 25TH: SUPPORT LOCAL BOOKSTORES & SEND BOOKS TO PEOPLE IN PRISON TO DOUBLE THE IMPACT OF YOUR DONATION

Celebrate Prison Banned Books Week with us October 19th-25th. Did you know prisons are the largest censors of books in the US? Learn more at prisonbannedbooksweek.org Thanks to an anonymous donor, any book bought for Books Through Bars from our online registry or from our partner bookstores this week will be matched dollar-for-dollar with a cash donation.

How does it work?
1. Go to one of our partner bookstores
2. Buy a book from our display & leave it for us with the cashier
3. We’ll pick up all the books at the end of the week & report how much was raised for a cash donation match

Hey friends! I’m doing a reading and author talk from my book Queer Horror at the gorgeous Celia Bookshop in Swarthmore on Friday, October 30th, and you know what else? There’s also going to be a spooky market! Besides Celia’s usual collection of excellent books (I recently picked up The House That Eats the Dead there), you can get some zines & vinyl records from Consonant Collective, some witchy stuff from Katie Haegele, comics & pop culture stuff from Jay McQuirns, and TTRPGs and Zine Games from Goosepoop Games! Tickets for the event cost $5, and the whole thing runs from 6:30 to 8:30ish. You can RSVP at celiabookshop.com/events. Hope to see you there =D #queerhorror #spookymarket #halloween

When the DMV throws a curveball into your plans because they say that they’re open but then you pull up and they’re not because of Monday’s holiday honoring a slave seller and master that never even stepped foot onto this continent … so you naturally stop at @ardour.bakeryandcoffee to satiate your growling stomachs with the most delicious pastries ever … and of course take a box home with goodies for later 😬 and despite work waiting for you at home decide to enjoy the time with your daughter who wanted to stop at a local library but we discovered @celiabookshop across the street and supported a local bookstore instead 📚🤓 #saturdayvibes #autumnday #independantbookstore #localbakery #smallbusiness

EVENT POST: Sara and I are doing a signing at Celia Bookshop in Swarthmore, PA this weekend! As usual, Sara and I will be doing live drawing and signing for YOU!

The event is technically Warriors TPB-themed since that's our most recent release, but if you bring BITSY AND BOOZLE TELL A STORY or a CRYPTID KIDS or DUNGEON CRITTERS we will also happily sign and sketch in those and draw those characters on request as well 💖✨
