Brooklyn Brainery


We passed an interesting space yesterday at 515 Court Street. There were a variety of people sitting, standing around chatting and gathered around a table with choppped lemons and bowls of ingredients. We wondered what this new spot was. Cooking classes? Well, it's that and then some. It's the newly opened Brooklyn Brainery and has been in the neighborhood for only a month now. The describe themselves on their website, http://brooklynbrainery.com/, as a space that "hosts cheap collaborative classes on anything and everything. It's a place to experiment with all the things you've wanted to learn but just haven't gotten around to yet -- think book clubs on steroids."

Just yesterday they were making ginger ale, but the classes aren't limited to concocting food or beverages. A couple February classes included "Using the media-A tool for Social Change" and a Beekeeping course. Go check them out. You just might learn something.
