Come gather with us.

Unbound lives online and IRL. Pull up on us to have some of the best conversations around the culture and craft of books. We host two recurring events in Washington, DC for readers who want to show up, slow down, and connect.

  • BYOB is Unbound’s monthly event for readers of every kind. Bring whatever you’re reading: fiction, nonfiction, poetry, comics, even that coffee table book you haven’t cracked yet. Grab a drink, find a quiet hour, and stay for the conversation after.

  • Come with books to give, leave with books to read. Each Book Swap is themed and community-built, which means every event is shaped by what readers bring to the table.
