📚 Pusher’s Delight

07/07/24

Hey Good Humans!

Huge thank you to everyone that came out to support our different events, all the thoughtful gifts, notes and donations. Thank you all to our sponsors over at KC G.I.F.T., and the community at-large in general. Cheers to three years down and a lifetime to go.

UPDATE: our Bookstore Rent Fundraiser has crossed the $8,500 mark. We are officially at 42% of our goal of $20,000 to cover the bookstore rent for the year. I really appreciate you all for the random acts of kindness every single time. Thank you for being a part of our story!

- Cori Smith, The Local Book Pusher

Upcoming Bookstore Events

Are you a local writer, aspiring writer, or just a casual writer (ages 16+)?

We are excited to announce a call for submissions for our upcoming horror/sci-fi anthology set in Kansas City at the center, which we will publish and release in the fall.

Have you seen this classic indie film? This month our Free movie of choice is the drama comedy classic, Losing Ground (1982). Fondly referred to as the first film directed by a Black Woman. Directed by Kathleen Collin.
