We share in the grief and anger that our community is feeling as it reels from the unconscionable murder of George Floyd. Along with everyone, we are saddened by and trying to make sense of the devastation that has happened to our city. Thank you to all who have reached out to check on us. We are all still safe. Please consider donating your time or money to one of the many local organizations currently working towards rebuilding and reform. Art by @andresitoguzman
For the safety of our staff, Magers & Quinn will be temporarily suspending operations, which includes our shipping and alley-side pickup services. We will resume these operations as soon as we are able, and orders may still be placed on our website. Thank you for your support. #mpls #lakestreet #uptownmpls #indiebookstore
Have you heard about @puzzletwist? These tough jigsaw puzzles have MN-themed designs and the kicker is that the picture on the box is just SLIGHTLY off...can you handle the challenge? #puzzles #jigsawpuzzle #shoplocal #indiebookstores
To our friends and neighbors: We can’t thank you enough for the support you’ve shown us over these past couple months. Whether it was an online order or simply a kind word on social media, we have appreciated hearing from you. We also appreciate the enthusiasm for the day that the store is once again open for browsing – we miss you, and look forward to seeing people in the store again, too! We are committed to making sure the process of shopping at Magers & Quinn remains safe for our staff and customers. To that end, we are taking time to plan how and when to begin the gradual process of reopening. Please check our site and social media regularly for updates – and there will be updates! Until then, our web store remains open 24/7 at www.magersandquinn.com, our phone lines are open, and next day pickup is available 3-6pm weekdays and 12-3pm on weekends. Thank you again for your kindness, patience, and support! Love, All of us at Magers & Quinn
Today’s puzzle highlights: birds, trains, geometrics, license plates, fish. Give us a call to inquire about these and more of our wide variety of puzzles! #puzzles #quarantine #stayhomemn
