Storytime: Celebrate Black History Month

Join us at La Petite Librairie Drawn & Quarterly at 11 am on Saturday February 17th for an English language storytime to celebrate Black History Month!

This event is free and open to all, and thanks to our friends at Tradewind Books, all storytime guests will go home with a free storybook!

This event is hosted in partnership with the TableRonde du Mois de l'histoire de Noir.e.s.

Librairie Drawn & Quarterly would like to acknowledge that our events and bookstores are located on the unceded territory of the Kanien’kehá:ka. Many of us refer to Montreal as our home, but it is named Tiohtiá:ke. It has always been a gathering place for many First Nations and continues to be home to a diverse population of Indigenous peoples. We are grateful that creating and sharing stories has been a part of this land for thousands of years.

Drawn & Quarterly tient à souligner que nos librairies sont situées et nos événements tenus sur le territoire non cédé de Kanien’kehá : ka. Nous sommes nombreux à appeler notre ville Montréal, mais son nom est Tiohtiá : ke. Elle a toujours été un lieu de rassemblement pour de nombreuses Premières nations et continue d’accueillir une population diversifiée d’autochtones. Nous sommes reconnaissants que la création d’histoires et leur transmission fassent partie de ce pays depuis des milliers d’années.
