We want your ideas…

The Rosewater happened because the neighborhood said they wanted a bookstore. But the Rosewater is more than a bookstore - it’s a meeting place, art gallery, pop-up shop, private rental space, the list goes on. Tell us what you want to see in this space.

The Rosewater is easily becoming my second home. I love the cozy atmosphere, being surrounded by books, and how comfortable my family and I feel when we are there. I enjoy meeting and making connections with my neighbors and watching them connect with each other as well. I smile right along with my neighbors when I see them find that “just right” book or trinket. Working at the Rosewater has allowed me to experience growth in my interpersonal communication skills while being surrounded by an environment that brings joy and community members that support each other. It has also increased my sense of connection and stability.
