Turning the Page at Brickhouse Books

Join us on the evening of June 5th at the Ivy Bookshop for a night of readings and celebration.

Authors Lauren Small and Shira Kundinger, née Pisner will share selections from their latest work as we mark an exciting new chapter for Brickhouse Books.

For nearly six decades, Brickhouse has championed poetry and prose across genres, making space for small voices, outside voices, and voices locked away. Brickhouse Books is the oldest literary press in Maryland, and is the bedrock of the state’s literary legacy. Co-founded in 1970 by poets Clarinda Harriss and Michael Egan, Brickhouse is known for publishing material of all genres — from poetry to artistic nonfiction — with a focus on creating space for new authors or authors of alternative inclinations, Brickhouse has given them a voice of printed words.
