About Me

The Mid-Atlantic Radical Bookfair is an annual event organized by Red Emma’s Bookstore Coffeehouse in Baltimore, in collaboration with Washington D.C.'s Brian MacKenzie Infoshop and Philadelphia’s Wooden Shoe Books . The 2006 Bookfair was held in downtown Baltimore at Centerstage, and drew in over 3,000 visitors over the course of the weekend, thanks to widespread community support and media attention.This year, the organizing committee is thrilled to announce that the 2007 Bookfair will take place at 2640 , the new community events space developed by Red Emma’s, located in the former sanctuary space at the historic Saint John’s Church in Charles Village (2640 Saint Paul Street).Additional workshops will also be held at The Village Learning Place, a community library located just down the street from Saint John’s Church, at 2521 Saint Paul Street.For more information see: http://redemmas.org/bookfair/2007/
