Society for the Advancement of Social Studies
All the history you knew but forgot, and
all the booze you need to forget it again.

The Society for the Advancement of Social Studies (SASS), The Brooklyn Brainery, and Public Assembly are proud to present a series of free lectures designed to both entertain and enlighten. On the first Tuesday of month, we will discuss a different historical topic that you probably knew at one point but don’t remember anymore.

This will be accompanied by fun games, surprise guests, and most importantly THEMED DRINK SPECIALS from the good folks at Public Assembly, which everyone knows is the best way to ensure maximum knowledge gained.

Meet Our February Speaker: Josh Levie

Josh is a self proclaimed renaissance man with a passion for cheap wine and expensive bourbon. Most recently, he claims to have received an honorary PhD in Geological Astronomy from an online course that we are pretty sure doesn’t exist. Nonetheless, his interest in the history of marriage and how it has changed over the centuries in western civilization makes him the perfect man to fill your brains with useful matrimonial facts.

So strap on the old ball and chain and come on down to Public Assembly to learn about the ever evolving nature of getting hitched (plus the origins of underwear and stories of scandalous historical affairs). We’ll be there with our friends with benefits Dottie Dynamo and Buffalo Trace!
