In Pittsburgh we are so lucky to have The City of Asylum Bookstore@ABC City.
The bookstore offers many frequent free events with opportunities to meet and hear authors, poets, musicians and artists encouraging cross-cultural exchange. Not to mention the broad and unique selection of cross-cultural (and more) books for children, young people and adults.
That’s where I met Jasmine Warga! See more about Jasmine and her books here: http://jasminewarga.com/about

About Us
City of Asylum creates a thriving community for writers, readers, and neighbors. We provide sanctuary to endangered literary writers, so that they can continue to write and their voices are not silenced. We offer a broad range of literary programs in a variety of community settings to encourage cross-cultural exchange. We anchor neighborhood economic development by transforming blighted properties into homes for these programs and energizing public spaces through public art with text-based components.
