Ready to come out of winter hibernation? Commonwealth Brewing in Old Town Fairfax is hosting a book fair and book swap this weekend alongside their usual Sunday brunch.

When: Sunday 11 January 2026, 11am-4pm

Where: 10426 Main St, Fairfax, Virginia

Whether you’re looking to clear up space on your overflowing bookshelves or just want to meet local writers working in all different genres, come on out!

I for one look forward to talking books and downing a couple brews.
