Because of your support in book sales, we're able to remain fiercely independent and keep our space free for community organizing. We think THAT'S a BIG reason to celebrate!

We're so grateful for our community that has helped us keep our doors open the past 5 years. None of the PCB worker-owners are trust fund kids or independently wealthy, and we are not funded by donors or grants.
