Horn & Ivory Bookstore at 522 Market Street is set to open for business on June 20, 2026. Selling both new and used books, the store will house fiction and non-fiction titles with a little something for everyone.
Owner Madison Curtis named her store Horn & Ivory as an homage to Homer’s Odyssey – one of the first stories she says sparked her love of reading. She hopes to create a place where books feel alive—where people of all ages can explore, discover, and feel inspired. She plans to collaborate with Forty Barrels Coffee + Kitchen in the future, allowing patrons to mingle between both locations through their connected double-doors.
Horn & Ivory will offer more than just books, it will also feature e-reader accessories, puzzles, stickers, candles, and store merchandise. Anything you need to enhance your reading experience.
Operating hours will be 5pm – 8pm Wednesday-Thursday, and 8am-6pm Friday – Sunday.
The Osage City Chamber of Commerce welcomes Horn & Ivory to its membership and Downtown Osage City!
