We’re open Wednesday - Saturday, 11 am - 5 pm, at 300 S Kelly St, which is a block south of Donald Judd’s house here in Marfa.
Marfa Book Co. presents concerts, films, and readings; we sell and publish books; and we organize and present art exhibitions. Additionally, we organize Agave Festival Marfa, co-organize Desert Encrypts with Rob Mazurek, and we are members of the In Front of Us Film Series Committee, through which we present a year-round film program featuring films made by women. We once organized a Poetry Gathering, but that’s another story.
We have hosted exhibitions, performances and readings by a stupid list of brilliant people, including Ali Abunimah, Carl Adamshick, Rosa Alcalá, Benjamin Alire-Saenz, Terry Allen, Dudley Althaus, C. J.
