ORGANIZATION: Turning the Page

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 4 people are interested

We can't wait for our June 17th Children's Book Festival at 1300 Pennsylvania Avenue NW! In addition to welcoming children's authors and illustrators for interactive conversations and activities, Carpe Librum will be holding a large pop-up book sale. We will need volunteers to help us set up and break down the tables and bookshelves for this fundraising event. This is a great opportunity to spend an hour or two supporting literacy and education in the DC public school system.

Can you lend a hand?

  • The first shift is from 8:30am - 10:00am helping to set up the tables and shelve books according to category.
  • The second shift is from 5:00pm - 6:30pm helping to break down the tables and pack up books.

If interested, sign up via VolunteerMatch and we will reach out with more details. Contact Cassidy at cbins@turningthepage.org with any questions. If you’re interested in helping out at one of our other pop-up book sales around the city, you can view our sale calendar here: https://turningthepage.org/events/.
Thank you!

(We’re not just any bookstore: we’re a fundraising bookstore! Carpe Librum collects donated books, CDs, and DVDs to support the DC nonprofit Turning the Page.)
