What’s So Funny ‘Bout Peace, Love and Gentrification?

Come join the Pratt Area Community Council for happy hour and an informal panel discussion around the changing character of Clinton Hill, Fort Greene, Bed Stuy and surrounding neighborhoods.

Panelists include writer Naima Coster, whose writing on gentrification in Fort Greene was published in the New York Times; visual artist and photographer Valerie Caesar, whose work was shown in MOCADA's "The Gentrification of Brooklyn;" and Deb Howard, PACC's Executive Director and neighborhood resident for 38 years; moderated by Lincoln Restler, Committeeman for Brooklyn's 50th Assembly District.

Enjoy happy hour beer/wine specials and hors d'oeuvres from Outpost. This event is free and open to the public.
