Celebrate Indies First with the Odyssey!

Indies First

 

 

 

 

 

 Indies First is the national campaign of activities and events in support of independent bookstores that takes place on Small Business Saturday. It's a day dedicated to supporting the local businesses that help create jobs, boost the economy, and preserve neighborhoods. To celebrate, we'll be offering free refreshments all day, gifts with every purchase of $50.00 or more, AND we'll have guest booksellers on hand to help you find the perfect holiday gifts for your loved ones. It's a great time to beat the holiday shopping rush and stock up because we'll also be offering 20% off for you or your community!

It's your choice: Save 20% off your purchase OR we'll donate 20% of your purchase to the Food Bank of Western Massachusetts. Last year, the Food Bank of Western MA distributed 10.8 million pounds of food to our neighbors in need in all four counties. Learn more about their work here. Interested in volunteering? Contact the Volunteer & Community Outreach Coordinator, Alison Brauer at alisonb@foodbankwma.org.
