Hanukkah Story Time with Eric Kimmel

Eastside Jewish Commons is located at 2420 NE Sandy Blvd.
For the safety of all families, we are asking attendees to mask for the duration of the story time.
We now are also offering weekly Story Times again every Tuesday at 11am!!! These story times are held on our outdoor covered deck at Green Bean Books! Masks are required and we are capping attendance at 30 people.
We also offer regular Virtual Story Time on our Virtual Events Page.

Hooray!!!
We will continue to be cautious and have several rules for everyone to follow so that we can keep all those in our community of readers safe including those most vulnerable to infection and, of course, children. We ask everyone to wear masks on our deck and in our store whether vaccinated or not.
Our rules are as follows:
*Masks required of all people age 2 and up.
*Hand sanitizer must be used when entering.
*Respectful social distance between individuals must be followed.
*Everyone will be allowed a 20-minute browsing period so that others can have a turn.
And here are some measures we are taking to make it safer inside:
*Doors and windows will be open when possible for air ventilation.
*A HEPA air filtration system is in place.
*Plexiglass is installed at the register.
*Regular cleaning and sanitizing will continue.
*All staff have been fully vaccinated and boosted.
If you are not quite ready to come inside, we understand!
We will continue to offer website ordering, telephone recommendations, contactless order pick-up on our deck, and shipping.
For those that are ready, we can't wait to welcome you into our cozy book house again!
Sincerely,
The Bean Pod Squad
