Villa Albertine Joins the Museum Mile Festival

To celebrate, our bookstore, Albertine, will be open to the public with extended hours from 6-9pm.

Come inside to browse books in French and English translation, to admire our constellation-inspired ceiling, or simply for a quiet break from the street. We will also host a family-friendly live reading from Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s beloved classic, The Little Prince, starting at 5pm in the adjoining Florence Gould Garden.

Copies of the book will be available for purchase inside the store and visitors of all ages will receive a 15 percent discount for purchases made during the evening.
