Five emerging and established writers will answer this question at this month’s edition of the Scrappy Reading Series, supported by the Red Hook Branch of the Brooklyn Public Library. Join us as these writers share how they interpret “scrappy,” and how they embody this in their writing lives, personal lives, love lives, and any other type of life they are living. Also enjoy the current exhibit on display by local Brooklyn artist Nelsena Burt-Spano. Readings by Arianna Rebolini, Elissa Bassist, Jamie Hood, and Veena Dinavahi. Brooklyn writer Farah Faye began this series to bring together published and unpublished writers to explore what it means to be scrappy. Admission is free, scrappiness required. Drinks and snacks will be served! Space is limited – register to attend!
