ARTIST MARKET ALERT! We are so excited to announce our second Read & Shop artist market with Silent Book Club Athens, hosted by Foxglove PlantBar.

READ, SIP, AND SHOP. Readers, customers, and anyone else who would like to attend are invited to drop in from 10am to 1pm at Foxglove to read casually, shop Foxglove's refreshing collection of houseplants and plant accessories, enjoy a coffee, tea, soda, or alcoholic beverage, and peruse the handmade art, jewelry, book accessories, and more from members of Silent Book Club Athens.

Please note, there will not be a dedicated reading hour during this event. You are welcome to bring your book and do some independent reading while you're there! There will be plenty of seating available.

WHY? This event is designed to showcase the crafty hobbies and/or businesses our readers enjoy when they're not at silent book club! Every vendor participating is a regular attendee of SBCA. We look forward to getting to know each other a little better and supporting the creativity of our wonderful reading community.

RSVPS ARE NOT REQUIRED. This is a drop-in event and you do not need to register in advance to secure a spot. However, you are welcome to RSVP here on Eventbrite to get email reminders, and help us estimate attendance!

Frequently asked questions

Can I come early?

Not this time. Foxglove opens at 10 a.m.

Where do I park?

Parking is free in the parking lot in front of Foxglove. We encourage able readers to park closer to the road to allow plant customers and customers for neighboring businesses to park near the building.

Do I have to be 21+ to attend?

No, visitors of all ages are welcome! Drinks are available, including coffee, tea, sodas, and alcoholic beverages for those 21+. You can also bring your own non-alcoholic beverage.

How do I become a vendor?

Please visit our Linktree to submit a vendor application by May 10th. In an effort to support the many categories of craft, and due to limited space, we will limit each category and may not be able to approve everyone. Vendors must be active participants of Silent Book Club Athens.

Organized by

Silent Book Club Athens was created in early 2020 to bring together local book lovers without the commitment of assigned reading and required discussion. Bring your book of choice and enjoy reading around Athens!
