Bailey's Café is a literary reference, from a novel of the same name by Gloria Naylor, is based on the stories of people who find themselves at the edge of the world and seek a place to heal and ground themselves.At our core, We Believe that healthy, vibrant communities have spaces where people can go to find their personal relevance and sense of purpose, nurture their individual growth, and make connections with other people, including across generations. We create physical and virtual spaces in partnership with local leaders, artists, and intergenerational volunteers, through a focus on community building, service, and the arts.Bailey's Café is Brooklyn-based and our roots are in Bedford-Stuyvesant and Crown Heights. We serve community members in the Central Brooklyn area. We are committed to working in communities across New York City that lack Bailey's Café type spaces and programs.Since its founding in 2003, Bailey's Café has focused in primarily two areas:1) Community Building and Service2) Arts Education and Production.Across our programs, Bailey's Cafe builds intergenerational connections and story sharing, expose our participants to new experiences, honor the stories of those whose voices are seldom heard and help develop a sense of possibility, healing and renewal through community-based organizing and artistic expression.How We ServeA.
