The bookstore, which debuted as an online store in summer 2021, will be moving from its original location at 2304 Stuart St. to a larger space just down the street, in the Eldorado Ballroom at 2310 Elgin St. The Stuart St. location closed May 4. Kindred Stories will open on a limited basis in its new home on May 10.
In an announcement posted on Instagram, the Kindred Stories team noted that almost immediately after opening, they realized they needed a larger space. "Being open six days a week and hosting hundreds of events," the team wrote, "we are so proud of the ways we maximized our small space and beautiful Reading Garden, but alas, it's time to move on and we couldn't be more ready."
