The Fort Greene Park Summer Literary Festival is this Saturday (Free!)
The Fort Greene Park Summer Literary Festival is this Saturday, August 24th, at the Monument in Fort Greene Park @ 2pm!
Featuring Chris Adrian, Timothy Small, Jackson Taylor, Angel Nafis, and Laurie Cumbo as Master of Ceremonies.
*Rain venue is Queen of All Saints Church at 300 Vanderbilt Avenue, but the forecast calls for a postcard-perfect 79-degree Brooklyn afternoon!

The Fort Greene Park Summer Literary Festival is presented by NY Writers Coalition, Akashic Books, Greenlight Bookstore, and the Fort Greene Park Conservancy, with additional support from Brooklyn Public Library, Queen of All Saints Roman Catholic Church, and the Walt Whitman Project.
