New Lots Library Design Unveiling
In 2019, Brooklyn Public Library began a series of community engagement workshops to reimagine New Lots Library. Your feedback influenced this design: the new designs honor the once unacknowledged African Burial Ground and celebrate African-American heritage.
Join us for a community celebration to see the new design for New Lots:
- Celebrate East New York!
- Meet the architects, see the new designs, and share your input. Design presentation starts at 12:30pm.
- Have Your Family's Photo Taken In Time for the Holidays and get a free digital copy.
- Share your New Lots story! Bring a photo, artwork or paper-based memory for the Center for Brooklyn History to scan and archive.
The event will go from 11am-3pm and will include:
- An Honoring of the Burial Ground
- Live Performances
- Free Food
- Art Activities For All Ages
RSVP encouraged but not necessary!
