We create cultural experiences that bring together literature, music, and community.

About Public Pages

Public Pages is a New York-based literary and cultural platform producing experiences at the intersection of books, music, and hospitality.

​

What began as a reading series has evolved into a growing body of public programming—book clubs, listening sessions, lectures in bars, and communal gatherings designed to bring literature back into shared space.

​

We’re interested in

Archiving stories and how they move through culture.
Hosting a listening party - especially to explore how a novel sounds when paired with music.
How a room feels when people read together.

​

Public Pages partners with venues, brands, and cultural institutions to produce events that are intentional, immersive, and rooted in community.

​

Founded by Branden Janese, Public Pages builds on over a decade of experience in hospitality, events, and cultural programming.
