Chuck & Dee Robinson opened Village Books in the June of 1980 and are thrilled to now be 30 years into the business. A vital part of Historic Fairhaven, a quaint area in Bellingham, WA, the bookstore moved into a larger, fresher space in 2004, where it continues to feed the reading appetites of residents and visitors.

Village Books hosts over 250 events each year, including the Chuckanut Radio Hour, a radio variety show that has hosted Sherman Alexie, Erik Larson, and none other than Garrison Keillor, among many others.
