Bottle Project
In Fall of 2022, Mark Schwartz, owner of the Nostrand Avenue wine shop Little Mo Wine approached Voices of Lefferts about a potential collaboration. Mark was bottling whiskey and wanted to create labels that reflect the Flatbush / Prospect Lefferts Gardens community. The result is The Bottle Project, which features the faces of four neighbors on four different bottles of whiskey being sold at Little Mo. QR codes on the bottles link to this page, where you can listen to conversations between each neighbor and Voices of Lefferts Director Deborah Mutnick. Scroll down to listen to the audio.
