The Alabama Booksmith is reopening its showroom after a year closed during the pandemic.
The grand reopening event is July 26. This date is also Rick Bragg's birthday, who is a Pulitzer-Prize winning journalist from Alabama. The store will call Bragg at noon, 2:30 and 5 p.m. to sing happy birthday. He will be on speaker phone and will answer a few questions.
Masks will be required inside for everyone, and crowd capacity will be limited.
The store will revert to its normal hours of 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday.
