Kick off: Opening reception on Monday, December 4 at 5:00 PM ET.
Conference concludes Wednesday, December 6 at 3:00 PM ET.
Featuring a keynote conversation with Dr. Bettina Love., BPL's Leadership Conference is when family comes together. It's a time when we stress the importance of rejuvenation. It's a place where we can speak in our own special language.
​
Dr. Love is an award-winning author and the William F. Russell Professor at Teachers College, Columbia University. Her writing, research, teaching, and educational advocacy work meet at the intersection of disrupting education reform and strengthening public education through abolitionist teaching, antiracism, Black joy, and educational reparations. Her new book, Punished for Dreaming, is available for preorder.
BPL Leadership 2023 will be taking place at the historic Loews Philadelphia (1200 Market Street), housed in the former Philadelphia Savings Fund Society building - the first international style skyscraper built in the United States. Located in the heart of center city and just steps away from the eclectic Reading Terminal Market, you'll never be at a loss for things to do or places to eat! Additional details are available here.
