WHO WE ARE

Erudite Encounters is a community based intellectual safe space, meeting place, creative hub, and retail bookstore. It was founded and created by two sisters with a strong love for community and scholastics.

OUR GOAL

Our goal is to increase the exposure of BIPOC authors and content from every genre. Our focus is to develop strong literacy skills and nurture the appreciation of various forms of literature. Through our mobile bookshop we aim to directly increase the access of literature to communities that are located in book deserts and would otherwise have little or no access to books. 

​

We are 100% Black Women owned.

Literacy and empowerment programs are available through our sister company Erudite Nation. Click below to learn more.

INSPIRATION

Reading is a method of inspiration and exploration. It opens our minds and deepens our passions.
