It never gets easier... Every year, each member of the Arcana staff faces the daunting task of selecting ten books to recommend for year-end giving from the many, many thousands in the shop that we love. But we bite the bullet and make the tough decisions to help you decide what to give to those on your "nice" list. We've collectively come up with an awesome group of suggestions priced from $9.95 to $600.00 - humble to glamorous, sublime to ridiculous.

We trust you'll find something here to give - even to yourself. Quantities are limited for some titles, so we recommend that you make your purchases early to avoid disappointment. Remember that these seventy or-so titles represent only the tiniest fraction of our very comprehensive inventory of new, rare, and hard to find books on Photography, Art, Design, Fashion, Design, Architecture, Music, Cinema, Music, and Culinariana, so come in to see much more and to avail yourself of our famously knowledgeable and clever staff's expertise. We will be open every day from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM - except Monday 12/14 - through December 24th for your shopping convenience.

For even more ideas, scroll through our blog, Instagram or Facebook - where we post our “Book of the Day” selection. Or forgo option paralysis and give the always appreciated gift of an Arcana: Books on the Arts gift certificate.
 

Happy holidays to you all, with thanks for another year of your
wonderful support from all of over the world.
Erin, Jess, Kevin, Lee, Sam, Steve, and Whitney
