Barrio Books come about as a deep love of literature and of the Tucson community. Started in the Spring of 2019, Barrio Books has brought books of Latinx representation to many corners of Tucson. They started as a pop up vendor hauling used books from event to event. Such as Cyclovia, Second Saturday Downtown, Barrio Centro Fiestas and many other community events. They slowly began taking space with their books at Galeria Mitotera, an Art Gallery in south Tucson, and at Chula’s, a gift shop off of 4th avenue. So many of their books have made it to different part of the United States as well! From California all the way to Maine!
