Fall Fête

Each year, we host a gathering to benefit the press and share our latest books with a community of supporters here in Brooklyn. You are warmly invited to join us for a festive evening to celebrate the press—honoring our writers, translators, booksellers, and the generous community that has kept the press going for its first twenty years. If you are unable to attend in person, consider sponsoring a translator for the evening.
