Unnameable Greetings Readings Fall 2026 Lineup
Dear survivors of the first year & a half of the Dumpster years (argh!). I hope everyone has had a rewarding & magical summer. What will the Fall bring us? Hopefully more temperate days. Hopefully languid nights. Hopefully many reasons for joy. As the assault on our sensibilities & rights is ongoing we need the support of our community of free & imaginative thinkers. We can only assume everyone's deep dissatisfaction with the Dumpster will be shown this Fall. In our desire to celebrate community, Greetings has seven events this Fall where we plan to gather the faithful to receive a dose of enigma & improvisation, of the hunters & shepherds of the word, of the world, broken into words, finding ways through our ear holes into our blood. As usual all readings are held in the backyard of Unnameable Books at 615 Vanderbilt Ave, in bustling Prospect Heights, Brooklyn, between St. Marks & Bergen Street on Thursdays at 7pm as the band plays with the sparrows during our meet n’ greet. At 7:30ish we announce the first performer. There are often 3 or 4 poets, or another musical guest. The event generally winds down between 8:30 & 9 pm. Rain or shine.
