Windsor Terrace Library (BPL) serves the Windsor Terrace neighborhood in Brooklyn.

Windsor Terrace's first library service began in 1922 with a deposit station that housed a 3,000-book collection in a pharmacy. The most notable later move was to a library created from two abandoned street cars. The present 7,000-square-foot library opened in 1969 after a local campaign to upgrade the library service. With the addition of two new self-check units, the branch continues to serve the local community providing technology as well as traditional services.

✏Brooklyn Writers Circle✏
Meets every other Saturday (see link)

Join our lively writing meetup for writers of all backgrounds and experience levels!

What to expect:
1) Introductions
2) Three 30-minute writing sessions
3) Optional sharing of your work

We'll offer prompts, but feel free to do your own thing. Sharing is encouraged but not mandatory, and we'll take our cue from Pat Schneider's "Writing Alone and With Others"/the AWA Method, so the group will offer only positive feedback to those who share: no criticism/thorough critique of just-written work.

Visit www.brooklynwriterscircle.com for our schedule. We can't wait to see you there!
