Independent Bookstore Day is Saturday, April 25, and regional shops are teaming up for a Mid TN Bookstore Crawl. Pick up a passport at any participating bookstore — there are 12 in Davidson County — and start making your rounds.
Here are some things to look forward to on the crawl:
Parnassus Books will have a story time with Clifford the Big Red Dog and author signings.
Someone with an extensive art collection needs this Forest Hills home. The 75-ft gallery hallway will give the owner plenty of wall space to work with, and the three-story spiral staircase looks like something you would find in a museum lobby.
Drink

Traffic
Let’s rock. The St. Jude Rock ‘n’ Roll Running Series Nashville is this Saturday, April 25. Check out all five course maps + the list of road closures to plan accordingly.
