Hyannis, MA, May 3, 2024: Belonging Books is excited to announce the launch of its book corner at Love Live Local’s retail store and headquarters. The celebration will take place on Friday, May 10, from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. at 539 South Street, Hyannis, MA.
This collaboration brings together two community-focused organizations – one dedicated to supporting local small businesses on the Cape and the other dedicated to uplifting historically-marginalized communities.
Attendees can expect an enjoyable evening filled with refreshments, giveaways, literature and the opportunity to connect with fellow book enthusiasts, community advocates and members of the community.
“We are so excited to take up some space on the Cape,” said Erica Tso Haidas, Founder of Belonging Books. “Our book corner at Love Live Local’s headquarters will not only offer a thoughtfully-curated selection of books from BIPOC and other underrepresented voices but also serve as a space for connection and conversation.”
“We are thrilled to welcome Belonging Books to our retail space and provide our customers with access to a selection of books that celebrate diversity and inclusion,” said Amanda Converse, co-founder of Love Live Local. “We believe that books have the power to bring people together and spark meaningful conversations, and we look forward to creating a welcoming space for our community to explore literature and to connect with the overarching mission of Belonging Books.”
Stop by on Friday, May 10, from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. at Love Live Local’s retail store, which features close to 70 local makers and brands, located at 539 South Street, Hyannis to celebrate literature, community, and collaboration.
