This last Saturday evening, Bookmans employees had a great time attending the opening reception for the 8th Annual Recycled Art Exhibiton, featuring art made from recycled materials. Artists from all over Coconino County come together to promote recycling through this creative, fun and inspiring exhibition. It's one of Flagstaff's favorite exhibitions each year! In fact, it seemed like all of Flagstaff was at Saturday night’s opening at the Coconino Center for the Arts. But don’t worry if you didn’t make it Saturday, there’s still a lot to come, including Bookmans in Flagstaff buying and selling on Saturday May 8th. Come see the amazing art, bring your stuff to trade and sell, and even browse for some great new used stuff! Bookmans is proud to be entirely based on the environmentally responsible practices of reusing and recycling.
