THE WORKSHOPS at Grace Reformed Church, 1800 Beford Ave, BrooklynVoices of Lefferts: The Flatbush-PLG Community Writing Journal recruits local residents in an effort to collectively tell the legacy and change of Flatbush/Prospect Lefferts Gardens.
Project Director, Deborah Mutnick“The Voices of Lefferts journal creates a space for PLG residents to put into practice the credo of the 1930’s Federal Writers’ Project which set out to ‘introduce Americans to America’ in the context of one Brooklyn neighborhood through portraits, interviews, and local histories.The authors collectively lay down a “geography of the street’ taking the reader on a literary tour of the neighborhood.”
Voices of Lefferts is funded by a Humanities New York Action Grant, the Prospect Lefferts Gardens Neighborhood Association, the Lefferts Manor Association and Long Island University.
