About this Event

We're back again — Summer Is Lit #3, right here on Franklin Avenue. Free for all families. Books, community, & joy (my favorite things)


Summer Is Lit #3

You know what summer needs? Books, ice cream, and community.

We’re bringing Summer Is Lit! back to Franklin Avenue Open Streets on August 22nd, and it is going to be everything.

Free books for families. Live read-alouds and signings with BIPOC authors. Brooklyn craft partners. Kente Cones gourmet frozen desserts made with African-inspired ingredients. And so much joy.

Bring the kids. Bring your neighbors. Bring everybody.
