Annual Book Fair at Barnes & Noble

Sponsored by the Parents Association, the Annual Book Fair is held each year in May at Barnes & Noble on 82nd St. & Broadway. In addition to receiving a percentage of all sales during the day, Calhoun's libraries and classrooms are the beneficiaries of generous donations by parents, grandparents and friends who purchase and donate books directly to the school.
