IN PERSON: Lydia Schrandt and Biju Sukumaran | Oldest Houston
What:
Lydia Schrandt and Biju Sukumaran will appear in person to discuss their new book Oldest Houston. Due to the size of the shop, we cannot effectively socially distance, so all event attendees will be required to mask. We have surgical masks on hand if you find yourself without one. Given the rapidly shifting circumstances surrounding COVID, please check this page to confirm that the event will take place in person.

We work hard to bring events to our community for free, because connecting readers with authors is central to our mission. But these programs are not free for us to put on! If you’re interested in attending this event, we hope you’ll consider purchasing a copy of Oldest Houston from our bookshop. Your support is critical to keeping us here and offering events like this, and we hope to do that for many years to come!
Blue Willow Bookshop expects all participants to maintain an atmosphere of respect and fairness. Any comments or questions that violate this standard of behavior including any form of harassment, may, at the discretion of the organizers, be immediately removed.
