Happy 10th Birthday, Village Lights Bookstore!

Congratulations to Village Lights Bookstore in Madison, Ind., which is celebrating its 10th anniversary this month with a series of events.

The festivities began on November 9, when Village Books launched Sweet Dreams Indiana by Adriane Doherty and illustrated by Anastasiia Kuusk. The bedtime board book, published by Cardinal Publishers Group, features famous people and places from throughout Indiana, including Village Lights and the store's own cats.

Village Lights owners Anne Vestuto and Nathan Montoya.

This past Saturday, Village Lights hosted an all-day party that included author events, giveaways, live music, free chair massages, birthday cake and much more. Purchases over $10 were 10% off, and the store had a launch event for Stephen Leigh's A Rising Moon, the second book in the historical fantasy series the Sunpath Cycle. The store's musical guests, meanwhile, were Tom Schneider and Margaret Breidenbaugh, the former a talented piano player, the latter a vocalist and player of the theremin.

The anniversary festivities will conclude on Indies First/Small Business Saturday with the appearance of author Scott Russell Sanders, Professor Emeritus of English at Indiana University Bloomington.
