Stay to enjoy performances by Tim Cusack (“I Ping the Body Electric”) and Compagnia de’ Colombari in and around our historic reading space, and to recite your favorite Whitman in full view of Walt’s Brooklyn ferry! Snacks courtesy of our partner Fulton Stall Market, a non-profit public farmer’s marketplace responsibly sourcing local products.
