Black Cat Books & Oddities, Medina, Ohio, which opened last August, has launched an expansion "that will transform the Black Cat experience into an even more immersive literary adventure" called the Black Cat Books Block, co-owners Alicia Hoisington Frazier and Max Frazier announced.
Black Cat Books will be expanding into an old Victorian house located at 119 Lafayette Road, directly behind its current location at 420 S. Court St., "effectively connecting the wonders of literature through a parking lot that serves as a gateway between two worlds of wonder," according to the store. The change adds four new rooms, bringing the total to 10 rooms across the two houses.
Among the benefits listed by Black Cat with the change will be expanded selections, more immersive experiences, more events space, increased convenience with more parking, and employment opportunities.
"We're keeping the themes of our new rooms under wraps for now but prepare for sneak peeks and teasers as we gear up for our grand opening this summer. The anticipation is part of the adventure, and we promise it will be worth the wait," said the owners.
