Bar, Kids' Pop-up in the Works for Loyalty Bookstore

Changes are coming to Loyalty Bookstore's original location in the Petworth neighborhood in Washington, D.C. Popville reported last week that the Petworth Citizen, a bar adjacent to Loyalty Bookstore, will close on February 1, and the two spaces will then be merged to form a combination bar, event space and bookstore.

At the same time, Loyalty Bookstore will launch a children's pop-up shop at Willow, a clothing and gift store located just down the street from the Petworth location. According to Popville, the pop-up will reside in the back of Willow's shop and feature children's toys, books and games, with space for children and families to relax and read. Loyalty's children's programming will be held at Willow as well, and Loyalty will stock adult books in the front of the store.

"We are looking forward to futher growing the children's selection of both stores and embracing all of our smaller Petworth neighbors with books, games and a welcoming 'please touch' environment," said Hannah Oliver Depp, founder of Loyalty Bookstores. "We will continue to provide excellent, diverse and inclusive books for all ages along with Willow's beautiful clothing and gifts to make sure our neighbors are served."
