held its grand opening on August 29, celebrating Independent Bookstore Day 2020. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Intermission is located in the historic Queen Theater building in downtown Brownwood. Local artists created the mural on the fa\u00e7ade. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Kim and Brant Bruton are the owners of the bookshop and emphasize that Intermission aspires to be a community resource. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\u201cIt\u2019s about community. It\u2019s about relationship and the success of this bookstore will not be measured in dollars. It will not fail. It can\u2019t fail because it\u2019s about relationship,\u201d Kim told the Brownwood Bulletin<\/em>.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
The name Intermission Bookshop has a couple of meanings. It\u2019s a nod to the former Queen Theater. \u201cAnd also, intermission means to pause, to break, to cease striving,\u201d Kim explained. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Hours of operation are 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday and 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday; the store is closed on Sunday and Monday. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
