DEI Special Events
The Pratt Library is dedicated to having programs and events that cater to underserved, overburdened marginalized communities and support the Library's commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusivity. Below you will find our upcoming events curated to reach communities deemed "hard to reach". If you would like to partner with us as one of our Trusted Voices or have ideas for events that will engage the community, please contact our Program Assistant Ty'Jae Jones, tyjones@prattlibrary.org or Agnes Nartey, anartey@prattlibrary.org to discuss further.
