Core memory unlocked: a book fair for adults modeled after The Scholastic Book Fair is coming to St. Pete in 2024. Taylor Adams and The Chelsea St. Pete (2462 5th Ave S) are joining forces to bring this fabulous event to life. It’s officially scheduled for Saturday, November 16 2024, just in time for the holidays. Now we just have to count down the minutes until this event actually happens.

“Join us for this BRAND NEW EVENT at The Chelsea St. Pete to honor the vibes of Scholastic book fairs from our childhood as well as our community’s love of reading as adults!” writes Adams on the official event page.
