Brecht Forum

About Me

The BRECHT FORUM is a place for people who are working for social justice, equality and a new culture that puts human needs first. Through our programs and events, the Brecht Forum brings people together across social and cultural boundaries; endorsing artistic and academic disciplines to promote critical analysis, creative thinking, collaboartive projects and networking in an independent community-level environment.Throughout the year, the Brecht Forum offers a wide-ranging program of classes, public lectures and seminars, art exhibitions, performances, popular education workshops, and language classes. These activities are developed in collaboration with the many social movements and the diverse communities of this most cosmopolitan of cities. Our programs bring together leading intellectuals, activists and artists from New York, across the U.S., and internationally.
