November 27th kicked off the annual Downtown Duncan Christmas Lightup, featuring music, Santa and fireworks. A Christmas entertainment trifecta!
We didn’t get much time to take photos once the crowds were in downtown, but we snapped a few of the store and some decorations, for fun. Thanks to everyone who joined us downtown and at the store for the event.
Just a quick note to let you know the store is open again. Our apologies for the unexpected closure — building maintenance took much longer than we’d hoped.
We have a sale starting pronto, so we’ll update you about that next. Stay tuned!
Regular customers to the store will have noticed Gallowglass Books has been closed on and off this past week. We’re so sorry for the inconvenience. The reason is due to unexpected building maintenance issues (some work being done upstairs and requiring some drywall fixes to our ceiling as a result) and it’s been a bit unpredictable.
We’ve been assured (knock on wood) that the work will be done in the next day or two and that we should be able to re-open the store on Wednesday at the latest. Maybe sooner, but your guess is as good as ours, I’m afraid.
We’ll be sure to post here as soon as we re-open. Meanwhile, feel free to contact us by emailing books@gallowglassbooks.com or phone and leave a message at 250-746-4104.
In addition to showing off our books, the Gallowglass Books Blog shares stories about the bookstore, our Vancouver Island home, and the people and places around us.
