January at Housing Works Bookstore Cafe: Art, Theater, Film, Philanthropy, Storytelling, and more!
We like books and everything, but sometimes it feels great to be a well-rounded cultural center. This month we’re proud to present a staged theater piece, a short from Sundance, even a panel on painting with live music! We’d also love to see you for classic literary readings and live storytelling, of course.
