Community Conference: The Village Past, Present, and Future with Village Preservation Executive Director Andrew Berman

The Jefferson Market Library has served as a center for creativity, intellectualism, and civic engagement in its community for the past 50 years. This conference seeks to celebrate that history by connecting a diverse array of Villagers in conversation. At 4:00pm, Executive Director Andrew Berman will discuss two prominent buildings that were saved by the community and reborn with new purposes: The Jefferson Market Library (formerly a courthouse), and The Public Theater (former the Astor Library). Both institutions celebrate their 50 year anniversaries this fall.
