Southeast Asia Mini Book and Craft Fair

October 12 @ 11:00 am - October 13 @ 7:00 pm

Once a month, SEA Junction holds a mini book and craft fair focusing on Southeast Asia.

For the books, three kinds of books are available:

  • New books given in consignment from recognized publishers with an interest in the countries of Southeast Asia including Silkworm Book and River Book from Thailand, ISEAS from Singapore and Yayasan Pustaka Obor from Indonesia. As a special highlight this month, there’s a restocking of books from Thai publishers.
  • New and used books that are double to those of SEA Junction’s Library. They include books in Thai, English and Indonesian on various issues related to Southeast Asia and the Greater Mekong Sub-region (GMS), including a collection of books in other languages such as in French and in Italian.
  • Few literature and development-related works from outside the region that have been donated to SEA Junction for the purpose of the fair.

There are also different types of crafts from Southeast Asian countries to enjoy and appreciate, for example:

  • Paper mâché dolls from Myanmar;
  • Handmade bags and postcards from Thailand; and
  • Puppets made from recycle papers, batik pencil case and fabric dolls from Indonesia

All profit from the books in consignment as well as from the donated books and crafts will contribute to SEA Junction’s functioning and activities.
