The 5 shops
The Book Club
Small, carefully curated bookshop and café in Mission that reviews Kansas City writers' work every quarter.
Heads up: Quarterly review; replies come a few weeks after the quarter closes, and no reply means not selected.
Wonder Fair
Lawrence art shop for handmade prints, zines, comics, art books, stickers, pins and inventive stationery and art supplies.
Heads up: Rarely wants poetry, fiction or self-published children's books.
The Raven Book Store
Lawrence's beloved independent bookstore on Mass Street.
Heads up: Book must be available through Ingram at a regular discount; Amazon/CreateSpace titles aren't stocked.
Truly Madly Depot
Eclectic gift, art and paper shop in Mission carrying products from around the world, with a Kansas City artists + makers section.
Heads up: Local makers aren't their primary focus; the email route is for KC artists and makers.
