HOW WE STARTED
OUR STORY
Rohi's Readery serves as a space to tap into unapologetic truth. To build community. To be Seen. Valued. Loved. Belong. We are committed to honoring historically marginalized communities where adults and children are co-constructors of learning and knowledge. We like to think of it as cultivating the genius that is already within our littlest ones and connecting with the inner child for the older ones too.
​
Rohi’s Readery, a social justice driven children's bookstore and learning center, is more than a physical space. It is an experience to feel freedom in our most authentic selves.
​
Driven by a commitment to amplify the voices of historically marginalized communities, including Black, Indigenous, Arab, Asian, Pacific Islander, Latine, LGBTQIA+, and the disability and neurodiverse communities, the Readery strives to create a space where individuals can find liberation in their identity while learning about the diverse stories of others. At the core of Rohi’s Readery is a dedication to promoting literacy experiences that empower both children and adults. Through free educational programming, the Readery offers a range of classes such as gardening, cooking, dance, book clubs for children, healing writing, caregiver gatherings, educator workshops, and inclusive yoga for adults to name a few.
