Pete's Candy Store Reading Series
FREE - Every other Thursday at 7:30pm
Curated and hosted by Jillian Capewell and Brian Gresko
Over the course of 15 years, Pete's Reading Series has earned a reputation as Brooklyn's premier reading series, where today's literary icons and tomorrow's stars take the stage regularly.
“The most intimate reading space in Brooklyn. Think of a fine pre-war dining car with an endless supply of booze.”
“Pete’s Candy Store Reading Series is by far the best series in Brooklyn, at the best bar. It’s the KGB of Brooklyn!”
“It has never been clear to me who Pete is, but there is no finer place to give - or hear - a reading in this city.”
