Open Books’ initiative, North Lawndale Reads, has partnered with the Lawndale Pop-Up Spot, a community museum in a shipping container, to turn the museum into a pay what you want bookstore for the month of April. The public is welcomed into the museum/bookstore on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays to browse, shop, and relax either inside or on the plaza with a good book. There are books for people of all ages, and the public is welcomed to take them home for any price they’d like, even for free.  Recognizing that book access is a huge part of literacy, Open Books is excited to partner with the Lawndale Pop-Up Spot (3601 W DOUGLAS BLVD.) to bring this store to the neighborhood. The Lawndale Pop-Up Spot is a community museum featuring exhibits by and for the North Lawndale community. This innovative museum is located in a shipping container which can be transformed into any number of spaces, including a bookstore. The museum is located in Love Blooms Here Plaza at the southwest corner of Central Park Ave. & Douglas Blvd.
