Location

We’ll meet back where we began — at NYPL’s Stavros Niarchos Library Foundation, 5th Ave + 40th St, Room 604, at 4pm!

Agenda

This week we’ll map where we’ve been and work with our colleague Fanny to engage in some brainstorming sessions that will help us design our collaborative project.

To Prepare for Today

Please look back through the website to remind yourself of where we’ve been, what we’ve done, and what ideas have informed our journey. You’re welcome to peruse our fieldwork photos, too.
Please review — and comment on, and add to — our list of Potential S&D Collaborative Projects.
Please feel free to bring (non-messy and relatively discreet 😉) snacks to share 🥨, and to bring your own drink in a closed container 🛢️.
