The Library After Hours

The New York Public Library’s latest exhibition, ¡Wepa! Puerto Ricans in the World of Comics, celebrates and explores the diverse artistic expressions and unique perspectives of Puerto Rican comic book creators.  The exhibition highlights aspects of Puerto Rican life and culture, from the Island itself and its connections with New York City, to Puerto Rico’s complex past and visions of futuristic and fantastical worlds.

Join us at the Library After Hours for special access to the exhibition, plus one-night-only events inspired by it—including curator talks, cosplay, live music, and more.

Special access includes

• Live music in the Rose Main Reading Room
• Crafts inspired by NYPL’s collections

Plus: Dance the night away, try your hand at games and puzzles, or relax with crafts and coloring. Snacks and drinks will be available for purchase. Doors will open at our 42nd St entrance at 7:30 PM, with final entry at 10:00 PM. The 42nd St entrance is accessible.
