Registration is open open open open oooopeeeen! You can now sign up for classes to your heart's content.
$25 apiece, and if you want to take multiples sign up for one and drop us an email and we can try to cut you a break on the rest.
Let's do an overview:
Scents & Sensibility: I'm teaching this one because F.I.T. wouldn't let me take a class about perfume! And because it's a good excuse to make a bunch of stuff with my ice cream maker in the name of Science.
Visual-Eyes: Looking at Things: Once upon a time Jen went to school for Art History and then graduated and got a job, and now she just wants to talk about buildings that look like ducks (I PROMISE. READ THE COURSE DESCRIPTION.) I am taking this class so I don't sound like an infant when I try to discuss art.
Optical Collusion: Bump and grind some lenses and mirrors! We are going to be putting light into the corner until it bends to our collective will. We'll balance out the sciencetown aspect of it with cool light sculptures involving stuff like electroluminescent panels.
And that's about it! Now please sign up for classes so I can stop telling you to sign up for classes.
Like what we're doing?
We're trying to move into our own space so we can do awesome things all of the time, but we need your help to do it!
We want to have more classes, more workshops, and a space where everyone can come together to work on things that interest them. And so much more!
Check out our Kickstarter page for more info.

About us
Brooklyn Brainery hosts cheap collaborative classes on anything and everything. Think book clubs on steroids.
Brainery classes don't have real teachers! Class leaders guide the learning process - you could say they know where you're heading (West!), but not that you need to take I-80 for a few thousand miles to get to Sutter's Mill.
That's where you come in! By sharing what you already know or what you've learned from the week's homework, class becomes way more interesting and way more collaborative.
