About the Event
Join Alexandria Moms Passport for Chapters & Connections, a family-friendly reading experience where every book holds a little mystery and a new adventure waiting to be discovered.
Each ticket includes a wrapped book for every member of the family to select — but the title, cover, and author remain a surprise until the big reveal. Use the clues to choose the adventure that feels right, whether you’re searching for a cozy weekend read, a silly story for big laughs, a bedtime favorite, or a new favorite chapter to enjoy together.
Spend your Saturday morning sipping coffee, enjoying pastries, connecting with other Alexandria families, and celebrating the simple joy of reading together.
Families will enjoy:
📍 Blind story pairing stations for parents and littles
📍 A cozy coffee corner with an iced coffee bar for parents and a chocolate milk “latte” bar for little readers
