Welcome! Whether you’re an Albany Park neighbor, a fellow Chicagoan, or coming into the city to visit- we hope you’ll stop in and get to know our community.
We believe that by supporting lifelong learning through diverse stories, we develop empathy and knowledge of self, which in turn builds a thriving community that is unapologetic in moving towards equity, solidarity, and joy.
Beyond our love of stories, we hope to become a hub for our community. Whether you’re looking for a new book, a chance to meet new neighbors, a multilingual know your rights card, or a space to gather with friends- you’re in the right space.
Come by, and be a part of what we’re building 💛
Restoried Bookshop is a space for stories to be told and shared. We’re still getting started here (opening a bookshop is a lot of work!), so be sure to check back soon for more information about upcoming events. We are getting ready to launch book clubs, community storytelling nights, and author events soon- and we would love to have you join us there. If you want to be among the first to know what we’re up to, be sure to sign up for our newsletter and follow us on BlueSky, Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook!
