Join the Midnight Dueling Club at Beach Bag Books & Music!















What do think of our license plate?
Accio Wand!
It should say "Accio, Book #7".

Sarah's so excited about Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows that she's having trouble sleeping!




Sarah and Ken have figured out how to make wands that actually shoot things, so we're hosting a Dueling Club Party on
Friday, July 20! Come at 8 pm and get sorted into a house. Compete for the glory of Hufflepuff, Gryffindor, Sytherin, or Ravenclaw and to win GREAT PRIZES!

We'll also start selling
Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows at midnight (July 20/21), so pre-order your copy today!

Contact us at 252-453-2900 or e-mail beachbaginfo@yahoo.com.

New Art at Beach Bag Books & Music


Hi everyone! We have some amazing new art at the store by artist, Bernard Re, Jr (www.globalhome.com).

...Think quantam string theory meets Jackson Pollock.


...Think "The Force" as Obi Wan described it in Star Wars, "It's an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together."



But no one can explain art like the artist himself. Here's what Bernie has to say about his work: (It is) a story that flows and emerges as a process from mind to mind. The painting serving as the mental expression by the artist, opening a portal to an impression formed in the mind of the observer -- who brings meaning to the image as they view it and bring it into the world.


Stop by to see it for yourself!
-Sarah and Finn
