Screening | Movie on the Cobblestones: By Design (2025) Sci-Fi Drama
Upon seeing a chair with a gorgeous body - sturdy frame, meticulous handiwork, classic design - Camille, a woman who's never been particularly jealous of any other woman, realizes that she truly envies the life of a perfect piece of furniture. Its usefulness even in utter plainness. Its providing of comfort, relief to all who need it. Through the wishing magic of the enduring body-swap genre, Camille and this chair exchange form. So begins a nightmare of stillness and silence. A woman's being trapped inside of an object, an object's essence weighing down a woman's figure. Feminine rivalry and resentment taken to its most ludicrous, surreal extreme Director: Amanda Kramer Cast: Juliette Lewis, Mamoudou Athie, Melanie Griffith, Samantha Mathis, Robin Tunney, Udo Kier Seating opens at 7:00 pm. First come, first served. In the event of rain, the showing will be rescheduled. No alcohol allowed.

Discussion | Prize-Winning Authors Discuss the Art of Translating "Difficult" Books
Translator and writer Max Lawton is joined by Pultitzer Prize winner Joshua Cohen and New York Times-featured writer Christian Lorentzen for a conversation about "difficult" literature, celebrating the English publication of The Sugar Kremlin by Vladimir Sorokin, translated by Lawton. They’ll discuss Sorokin as well as Schattenfroh by Michael Lentz, big books, weird books, and the art of translating them. Presenting a wide variety of genres and tones, The Sugar Kremlin lays out a frightening vision of speculative mercilessness and carnivalesque political horror. It takes place in the New Medieval universe over the course of fifteen chapters that all return to the object of the title: replicas of the Moscow Kremlin made of sugar. Thousands of these creations are given away to children during the holidays, then make their way through each stratum of Russian society. Readers follow the trajectories of these candied gifts from the hands of harried paupers to secret political dissidents, from torture-obsessed civil servants to sex workers in a nearby bordello... As Sorokin shifts from story to story and style to style, he draws the reader through grotesquely Russian scenes, creating an aberrantly metaphysical encyclopedia of the New Medieval "Russian soul." The candy's sweetness is deceptive—underneath it, you may detect notes of blood. Doors open at 5:30 pm.

Book Club | Dicuss the Book Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus
Join a lively discussion about the #1 New York Times Bestseller! Synopsis: Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it's the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant, Nobel-prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with--of all things--her mind. True chemistry results. But like science, life is unpredictable. Which is why a few years later Elizabeth Zott finds herself not only a single mother, but the reluctant star of America's most beloved cooking show, Supper at Six. Elizabeth's unusual approach to cooking ("combine one tablespoon acetic acid with a pinch of sodium chloride") proves revolutionary. But as her following grows, not everyone is happy. Because as it turns out, Elizabeth Zott isn't just teaching women to cook. She's daring them to change the status quo.

Tour | Dance Theatre Workshop Exhibition: A Place for Creativity & Experimentation
Take a tour of an exhibition to learn how Dance Theater Workshop grew from a need for space into a lasting model of support for artists. Dance Theater Workshop provided not only space to create, but also offered classes and professional development for artists, subsidized video recordings of performances, and gave artists administrative support. For many individual artists, it was the first time that they did not have to manage every aspect of a production by themselves, and this freed up time for creativity and experimentation. Over time, Dance Theater Workshop became a crucial venue for artists in the downtown scene. A number of choreographers now well known all over the world, including Mark Morris, Donald Byrd, Bebe Miller, and Bill T. Jones, all got their start at the Dance Theater Workshop. Dance Theater Workshop also provided funds and initiatives that helped these artists travel and exhibit their work outside of New York, and brought regional artists to the city. They also created the Bessie Awards, which recognize outstanding and groundbreaking creative work by independent dance artists in New York City.

Author Reading | Inside Scoop with Nonfiction Authors: The Influence of John Adams
A conversation with Dr. Lindsay M. Chervinsky, presidential historian, writer, and speaker. She is the Executive Director of the George Washington Presidential Library. Chervinsky will be speaking about her book: Making the Presidency: John Adams and the Precedents That Forged the Republic. An authoritative account of the second president of the United States that shows how John Adams's leadership and legacy defined the office for those who followed and ensured the survival of the American republic. Making the Presidency is an authoritative exploration of the second US presidency, a period critical to the survival of the American republic. One of the most qualified presidents in American history, he had been a legislator, political theorist, diplomat, minister, and vice president--but he had never held an executive position. Instead, the quixotic and stubborn Adams would rely on his ideas about executive power, the Constitution, politics, and the state of the world to navigate the hurdles of the position. He defended the presidency from his own often obstructionist cabinet, protected the nation from foreign attacks, and forged trust and dedication to election integrity and the peaceful transfer of power between parties, even though it cost him his political future. Offering a portrait of one of the most fascinating and influential periods in US history, Making the Presidency is a must-read for anyone interested in the evolution of the presidency and the creation of political norms and customs at the heart of the American republic.

Concert | Lo-Fi Pop Music: Matt Costa (In Person AND Online!)
Lo-fi music often has a "do-it-yourself" or home-recording feel, with a rawness and authenticity that can be very appealing. The combination of lo-fi production and folk/pop songwriting often results in a chill, relaxed, and sometimes melancholic atmosphere. The versatile and evocative voice of singer-songwriter Matt Costa has been diligently honed over two decades of touring, both solo and with a roster of indie rock artists that includes Oasis, Modest Mouse, Ryan Adams, G.Love, and Death Cab for Cutie, among many more.

Classical Music | Music in the Lobby: Contemporary Compositions by mary Edwards
Mary Edwards is a composer and sound artist whose interdisciplinary practice encompasses themes of temporality, impermanence, nostalgia and the natural world that recur throughout her work. At this concert, she will present a program of original works, including her iterative composition, Everywhere We Are is the Farthest Place. The origins of this project began on an Arctic expedition above the 78th Parallel, where she first gathered field recordings of geological/oceanographic activity —vibroacoustic natural events—iceberg torrents, calving glaciers, whale song and converging subterranean rivers of the meltwater channel—then reimagined as an ode rather than an elegy. It takes listeners to the outermost space that resembles its earthly NASA Terrestrial Analog Site of the Svalbard Arctic desert, and lands us back down to praise our natural surroundings— right now— in the face of rapid change.

Tour | Tour of Gracie Mansion, Home of New York's Mayors
In 1799, a prosperous New York merchant named Archibald Gracie built a country house overlooking a bend in the East River, five miles north of the then-New York City limits. Little did he know that, more than 200 years later, his home would serve as the official residence of the First Family of New York City - a place where history is made, not merely recorded. As a historic house museum run by the Parks Department, sitting on 11 acres of grounds now known as Carl Schurz Park, Gracie Mansion has served as the home of 11 mayors, beginning with Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia in 1942. Each tour is one hour, followed by a 15-minute Q&A session with an assigned docent.

Short on water, food and hope, they spot a man floating in the waves. They pull him in. Thank the Lord we found you, a passenger says. I am the Lord, the man whispers. Is this strange and quiet man really who he claims to be? What actually happened to cause the explosion? Are the survivors already in heaven, or are they in hell? The story is narrated by Benji, one of the passengers, who recounts the events in a notebook that is later discovered, a year later, when the empty life raft washes up on the island of Montserrat. It falls to the island's chief inspector, Jarty LeFleur, a man battling his own demons, to solve the mystery of what really happened.

Concert | Music in the Park:Soccer Mommy, Hurray for the Riff Raff, & More
Over the past 10 years, Soccer Mommy’s Sophie Allison has established herself as one of the most distinctive voices in indie rock. She writes tender songs with gorgeous guitar tones that ruminate on love, self-doubt, and vulnerability. Her 2020 LP Color Theory became a lodestar during the pandemic, with songs like “Circle the Drain” and “Crawling in My Skin” reflecting the turmoil of isolation through ‘90s grunge riffs and soaring hooks. Hurray for the Riff Raff’s Alynda Segarra ran away from home as a teen to ride the rails and see the country before settling in New Orleans, where they became a promising folk musician. Their latest LP, The Past Is Still Alive, digs into their years riding the rails and sleeping under the stars. Avant-pop band Dummy will round out the evening with their heavy, transfixing sound. Their last full-length album, 2024’s Free Energy, was named a Stereogum Album of the Week.

Book Club | Discuss the Novella Paul Celan & the Trans-Tibetan Angel by Yoko Tawada
Analyze and talk about Paul Celan & the Trans-Tibetan Angel by National Book Award winner Yoko Tawada, translated from German by Susan Bernofsky. Synopsis: Originally published in 2020, Tawada's latest is presciently set in a pandemic-emerging Berlin. Her protagonist initially refers to himself as “the patient,” struggling with leaving his “own four walls.” He reveals a name, Patrik, possibly necessary for interfacing with (select) others. He recently walked out of his job as a research assistant for a professor of German literature, a self-denying narcissist who is particularly and vocally contemptuous of poet Paul Celan’s work. That derision fueled Patrik’s interest in Celan, inspiring him to register for a Celan conference in Paris. The organizers’ query, What is your nationality?, asked in order to potentially secure funding for Patrik’s participation, sends him on a spiraling search for identity as the German-born son of immigrants. His (maybe) chance meeting with Leo-Eric Fu, a “Trans-Tibetan” (a “Celan word,” Patrik acknowledges), provides comforting friendship over language, literature, books, ancestors, and, of course, Celan.

Cannon by Lee Lai A LAMBDA Award winner and breakout fiction sensation returns with a darkly funny slice of friendship strife. In Cannon, Lee Lai’s much anticipated follow-up to the critically-acclaimed and award-winning Stone Fruit, the full palette of a nervous breakdown is just a slice of what Lai has on offer. As Cannon’s shoulders bend under the weight of an aging Gung-gung and an avoidant mother, Lai’s sharp sense of humor and sensitive eye produce a story that will hit readers with a smash. Do Admit: The Mitford Sisters and Me by Mimi Pond Born with pedigrees but without the pocketbooks to match, The Mitfords were certainly no strangers to lies, intrigue, or scandal. Nancy, Pamela, Diana, Unity, Jessica, and Deborah. The sisters grew from cloistered turn-of-the-century country girls into debutantes who would marry into political influence—for better or worse. Is it any wonder that a young, working class Mimi in Southern California becomes enamored with The Mitfords’ downright fanciful rich-and-famous lifestyle? This charming, inventively cartooned, and lovingly researched biography captures the dramatic, over-the-top antics of high society’s strongest personalities as they rubbed elbows with some of history’s most infamous fascists and communists.

Don't miss this deep dive into the life and legacy of one of the most provocative and important cartoonists of the 20th century. Best known for iconic creations like Zap Comix, Mr. Natural, and Fritz the Cat, Robert Crumb revolutionized the medium with his deeply personal, often controversial work that explored taboo topics, cultural anxieties, and the darker corners of the American psyche.
