The Story Circle
At 18 August Ave, we believe books build more than readers—they build community, connection, and wellbeing.
Our membership & book subscription program invites families, caregivers, and literacy advocates to be part of something bigger than a bookstore. By joining, you’re helping us sustain a space where Black and Brown stories are centered, children’s imaginations bloom, and families grow together through reading and wellness.
For families and readers who want to nurture literacy and emotional wellness together. Also, Ideal for teens seeking representation, identity, and deeper discussions by providing agency to pick their own book each month.
For families and supporters ready to make a legacy impact on literacy and wellness in BIPOC communities. The premium tier—a legacy club for those who want to invest in literacy, community, and impact.
