Pop-up Book Market

Join Darling & a Scholar for a cozy pop-up book market at OCA Mocha’s community room! Browse a thoughtfully curated selection of secondhand and donated books, with most priced around $10. Bring gently used books from home to donate and enjoy a special $5 book option as a thank-you for giving your books a new life.

Our themed table, A New Chapter, features uplifting reads for anyone starting something new, alongside plenty of stories for all ages and interests. Best of all, a portion of the sale of donated books—and all other book sales—supports local community programs through our partnership with The Community Cooperative.

Come find your next great read, support your community, and enjoy a welcoming day of books, coffee, and connection.

📚 What to expect:

– A themed table focused on new beginnings and curious journeys
– Secondhand and donated books, most around $10
– Curated books across many genres
– A warm, community-centered space to browse and connect
– Book Donation Station for passing along your own books
