Students from Jackson-Reed HS will be hosting a pop-up bookstore (Carpe Librum) at 5221 Wisconsin Ave NW tomorrow on Friday, March 12 from 4 to 7pm.   Music, snacks, door prizes, and live band BIRTHDAY GIRL.  Come out, browse books, records, CDs, and support Turning the Page, a non-profit organization doing great work in our community.

 Turning the Page is a DC non-profit organization that links public schools, families and our community so that, together, stakeholders can ensure students receive valuable educational resources and a high-quality public education. One way that Turning the Page raises funds is through used book sales.  In conjunction with the Friendship Heights Alliance, Turning the Page is creating a pop-up book store at 5221 Wisconsin Ave NW in Friendship Heights (half a block down from Bank of America at Harrison & Wisconsin).    The store opens on Friday May 5th and runs through the middle of June.

On Friday, May 12 from 4pm to 7pm, Jackson-Reed students will be running the bookstore as part of a TIGER TAKEOVER Event.  Come out and hear music by Jackson-Reed band BIRTHDAY GIRL plus enjoy treats/food and buy some quality used books to support the cause!
