    Description
    Dig through cookbooks, kids’ books, art books, popular fiction and more. Arrive early for the best selection, or late for the best deals. On Saturday afternoon, Newberry refuels the tradition of Washington Square Park, once the site of rip-roaring political banter. Join soapbox debates or take a sideline view of the ruckus. Debates take place Sat 26 noon–4pm. Old timey treats such as root beer, lemonade and hot dogs will be available for purchase.
