what

Aesop's annual Queer Library returns to New York for its sixth year at Aesop Nolita. The brand transforms its retail space into a community library celebrating LGBTQIA2S+ voices by replacing product displays with books written by queer authors and allies. Visitors can browse and select a complimentary book to take home with no purchase required while supplies last. The initiative is presented in partnership with the American Civil Liberties Union Foundation and has distributed more than 115,000 books globally. Featured titles highlight queer storytelling, identity, visibility, self-expression, and community.
