Exciting Market Event Hits Charleston This Weekend!

Charleston, S.C. is buzzing with anticipation as the Mystical Market draws near! This enchanting event will take place on November 2, from 12:00 to 5:00 p.m. at the popular Palmetto Brewing Company. Get ready for a delightful afternoon filled with books, beer, and an incredible community spirit!

A Perfect Blend of Local Culture

Organized by the Charleston FRIENDS of the Library and the Finnegan Publishing Group, this market is a fantastic opportunity to meet local authors and explore a wide array of books and crafts that showcase the creativity of our community. From captivating novels to lovely artistic prints, there’s sure to be something that catches your eye!

As part of the warm and inviting atmosphere, Palmetto Brewing Co. is sweetening the deal by donating $1 from every pint sold directly to the Charleston FRIENDS of the Library. This generous contribution will support vital literacy and learning programs at the Charleston County Library, making your good time also a way to give back!

Fun for Everyone

The FRIENDS group has lined up an exciting book sale featuring an assortment of children’s books, all of which come with a delightful free toy with each purchase. Adults will also be delighted with a range of fiction and non-fiction titles available at this one-of-a-kind market. Plus, vintage t-shirts and raffle opportunities for rare books add to the range of treasures just waiting to be discovered!

A Vision for Local Authors

We spoke with Allison Paige, the founder of Finnegan Publishing Group, who shared her passion for creating a supportive environment for self-published authors. She expressed, “As a self-published author, I wanted a place that let authors retain control over their work. A place where finding resources, such as editors, cover artists, web designers, and other creative partners was more accessible and affordable. We are here to relieve the pressure involved in creating a book so authors can do what they do best: write!”

The Importance of Community Support

Leah Donaldson, the Executive Director of Charleston FRIENDS of the Library, passionately shared her enthusiasm for the upcoming market: “Charleston FRIENDS of the Library is dedicated to empowering literacy and learning and is thrilled for the opportunity to partner with Finnegan Publishing Group! The market will feature a variety of books, genres, and vendors – something for everyone! We hope you will join us in supporting local – authors, books, beer, and our library!”

So, mark your calendars for this Saturday and invite your friends and family to join in on the fun. Whether you’re a book lover, a craft enthusiast, or just in the mood to sip on some local brews while supporting the library, the Mystical Market is the place to be!
