We are pleased to welcome one of our most popular speakers back to the Brooklyn Collection this Wednesday, February 27th, for the latest installment of our monthly lecture series. Join photographer Jamel Shabazz as he talks about his experience coming of age in Brooklyn as a young photographer. Through his images he will share stories about his growth into manhood and his desire to document the lives of the people who impacted his life. Shabazz's photography is currently on display throughout the Central Library building and in the Brooklyn Collection. You can also see some of the photographs that he has donated permanently to the Brooklyn Collection in our catalog.
All programs are held in the Brooklyn Collection, on the 2nd floor mezzanine level of the Central Library at Grand Army Plaza. A wine and cheese reception precedes the talk at 6:30 P.M. Seating is limited to 40 people. Tickets will be given out starting at 6:30pm.
