Sips and Scholars

Join the Brooklyn Public Library and the Brooklyn Institute for Social Research for Sips & Scholars, a free lecture series that brings engaging discussions to community spaces across Brooklyn.

This lecture, “Jane Jacobs, Greenwich Village, and the Life of the City,” explores the lasting impact of Jane Jacobs’ ideas on urban planning and city life. Historian Dr. Andy Battle will discuss how her work continues to shape the way we think about neighborhoods, public spaces, and communities. Light refreshments will be provided.
