Calling all literary lovers! The Shanty (79 Richardson Street) is hosting a monthly reading series. As the home bar for the New York Distilling Company, the makers of Dorothy Parker Gin, it’s the perfect setting for a 2020s version of the Algonquin Round Table (do we have a name for our decade yet? Let me know!)
This month’s readings will take place on May 1 at 6 p.m. Entry is free, although registration on Eventbrite
