Sister Moon Feminist Bookstore & Art Gallery operated two locations in Milwaukee during the late 1970s. The stores, situated at 1625 E. Irving and 2128 E. Locust, sold over 2,000 book titles and a variety of art and crafts, including pottery, stained glass, and photography. The Irving Avenue space was later occupied by Constant Reader Bookstore.
