Acclaimed scholar Simon Critchley and two of his PhD students from the New School, Hannes Charen and Joseph Lemelin, will lead a series of discussions at FIAF’s Haskell Library and the Brooklyn Public Library. Celebrating kids’ unabashed curiosity, he will invite them to engage in deep conversations about subjects ranging from friendships to society, and other key themes in philosophy. No parents allowed!
