About Me |

Located at 2241 S. KK Ave. in Bay View Open Mon-Sat 10-8, Sun 11-5WWW.BROADVOCABULARY.COM We are Milwaukee's feminist & radical booksellers. We are near the corner of KK and Lincoln in Bayview (Milwaukee, WI). Broad Vocabulary is run by amazing, wonderful volunteers. Our store sells feminist fiction and non-fiction, cultural history, queer studies, media studies, art, general politics, zines, music, gifts and whatever else you'd like. We feel that Milwaukee has an amazing feminist scene,and is ready for a community space. So here we are;here just for you! While our space is small and cozy, there is plenty of room for community meetings, workshops, signings, bookclubs, and lectures. If you have any ideas and events that you would like to plan/host please contact us at 414-744-8384. Our store hours are Mon.-Sat. from 10am-8pm and Sun from 11am-5pm. Need books for your school or workplace? We can help you choose books for your classroom, business, or organization library on just about any topic. Or, if you already have books picked out, we can get them for you! I created my own profile using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM and you should too! |
