Join in on the anniversary fun on Sept. 12th!

Here is a history on Small World Books!

Venice’s beloved Small World Books is turning 50 years old in September, making it the oldest general bookstore in Los Angeles.

But Small World Books has also been an artistic hub for both emerging and established authors, from signings with Anne Rice (the line went down the boardwalk as far as the eye could see!) and Walter Mosley (his first book signing was with them and his mother made sure to invite all her friends) among countless other authors both big and small; to art openings, live music and innumerable stories(some more appropriate than others) that have shaped who SWB is and what  makes them one of the most unique bookstores in the country!

On September 12th, from 6pm-9pm, SWB will have live music, food and drinks to honor all the past employees and customers who helped them thrive and to all the future ones who will help them stay around for another 50! Read Rest of Article Here
