House of SpeakEasy
House of SpeakEasy is a home for close encounters of a literary kind, a place where authors and audiences come together in innovative ways. Founded in 2013 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, SpeakEasy is dedicated to the idea that literature matters, and that the essence of literary culture is the relationship between writers and their readers. To foster that relationship, SpeakEasy brings authors out from behind the book, lectern, or screen into direct contact with readers to stimulate the audiences (and authors) of tomorrow by exposing them to the best writing of today.
SpeakEasy's flagship program is "Seriously Entertaining," a monthly series featuring acclaimed authors and thinkers who are invited to take the stage to riff and ruminate informally on that evening’s theme. SpeakEasy's "Seriously Involved" program engages students and teachers in underserved communities in NYC with a range of programs, including the SpeakEasy Bookmobile that delivers literature to "book deserts."
