Book Discussion | Humanities Scholar Shares His New Book Exploring NYC in the 20s
Jonathan Ezra Goldman, James Joyce Society President and Professor at New York Tech, provides a fresh look at 1920s New York City in this conversation with recent Manhattan Borough Historian Robert Snyder. Hidden Histories of Jazz Age New York offers a fresh look at 1920s New York City, unearthing stories of everyday life and marginalized communities. In sections that intertwine entertainment, politics, art, technology, crime, shopping, eating, and recreation, the book portrays sweeping events such as the Harlem Renaissance, Prohibition, and immigration reform through anecdotes of individual experiences that counter the era's popular conceptions of ballooning wealth and uproarious celebration.

Concert | Theme Songs & Original Scores Drawing on Chinese Folk Songwriting
Muk Lau Yan is an original mystery series in development by software engineer Xi Chen and designer Pu Cao, set within Chinese American communities in the United States. Performing under the provisional name Muk Lau Yan, the duo, joined by guest cellist Teksuko, will present selections of theme songs and original score from the project. Both Xi Chen and Pu Cao were active figures in Beijing’s underground music scene in the early 2000s, while Teksuko is a New York–based cellist known for her adventurous and experimental approach to performance. Drawing inspiration from the experiences of the Chinese diaspora—displacement, longing, and resilience—the music combines Chinese folk songwriting with elements of noise and experimental sound. Raw, emotionally charged, and deeply personal, their performance embraces a lo-fi, DIY aesthetic while exploring the tensions between individual lives and larger social forces.

Ambivalence is a memoir of the author’s native city of Dublin in the 1980s and ’90s, a portrait of the author as a young man, and an intimate defense of radical thinking about literature and life. In vivid, present-tense passages, Dillon describes his first encounters with writers such as Virginia Woolf, Walter Benjamin, Roland Barthes, and Jacques Derrida. He recalls being seduced by androgyny, ambiguity, and ambivalence on the page and in the life he hoped his reading would transfigure.

Talk | Fashion Historian Shares Her New Book on the Evolution of Gilded Age Wardrobe
Author Raissa Bretana shares her new book, Fashion of the Gilded Age. It's an in-depth look at the evolution of the fashionable silhouettes from 1870 to 1910, along with the cultural context and customs of etiquette surrounding dress during this dynamic period in American history. Raissa Bretana has hosted a video series for Glamour, and appeared as a guest on Follow the Thread for Turner Classic Movies and HBO Max. She currently works at the Museum at FIT and is the author of Shoes (2021) and co-author of Moxie: The Daring Women of Classic Hollywood (2024). Nothing embodied the resplendence of the Gilded Age like the opulent fashions worn by the women of elite society. With their well-appointed wardrobes, they achieved social prominence by ensuring they were elegantly and appropriately dressed for every luncheon, reception, promenade, and ball. It was an era marked by an increasingly style-conscious public, shaped by the expanding fashion press that reported on both the couture houses of Paris's Rue de la Paix and the department stores of New York's Ladies' Mile.

Don Juan has abandoned Elvira, whom he seduced into breaking her vows and marrying him. Over the course of a single adventure-filled day, he and his loyal sidekick, Sganarelle, encounter many of the people Don Juan has betrayed. As he seduces women, defies social conventions, mocks religion, and revels in provocation, his appetite for transgression seems impossible to satisfy. Yet the signs are unmistakable: the walls are closing in. Will he truly repent? Or will he just pretend to, like so many around him, and continue down the same path to the bitter end? Playwright: Moliere Translator/Adaptor: Stephen Wadsworth Director: Lucie Tiberghien Cast: Keshav Moodliar, Kaliswa Brewster, Naomi Lorrain, Daniel Pearce, Michelle Veintimilla This presentation will feature live original cello music by Drama Desk-nominated composer Johnathan Moore.

Dance Performance | Maedeup: An Encounter with Korean Visual Heritage through Contemporary Dance (In Person AND Online!)
A live, non-verbal performance that reimagines Korean classical painting through contemporary performance. Named after the Korean word for "knot," Maedeup evokes the weaving together of image, movement, sound, and memory. Inspired by the visual world of Shin Yun-bok (Hyewon), an 18th-century Korean painter renowned for his portrayals of women and everyday life, the work unfolds without spoken text. Foley performance, tableau vivant, live visuals, and live camera work transform his paintings into living, time-based events in which body, sound, and image converge in real time. The production offers an encounter with Korean visual heritage beyond language and cultural boundaries. The project brings Korean cultural heritage into contemporary performance and into dialogue with international audiences. Led by director and professor Kim JiYoung, the production brings together professional performers connected to SeoulArts in an interdisciplinary collaboration spanning theatre, visual art, sound, photography, and live media. Kim's recent work explores new ways of connecting Korean tradition with contemporary expression.

Gallery Talk | Scenes of Becoming: Multimedia Solo Exhibition Exploring Memory, Migration, Identity, & Beginning Again (Artist Talk)
A new exhibition bringing together seven mixed-media works and an original accompanying song, Now or Never, the exhibition considers the moments—both visible and unseen—that shape a life. Artist Huey-Min Chuang's work moves between memory and imagination, migration and belonging, absence and presence, asking what happens in the spaces between who we were, who we are, and who we are still becoming. The exhibition approaches the gallery as a kind of film set. Each artwork becomes a scene: a fragment of a larger story whose beginning may have already happened and whose ending has yet to be written. The works invite viewers to consider their own unwritten scenes—the places they have left, the people they have carried with them, the identities they have inherited or reinvented, and the possibilities that emerge when they choose to move forward.

Talk | Artist AA Bronson, Member of General Idea, Interviewed by Curator
The seminal Canadian artist trio General Idea played parodically and subversively with the mass media and popular culture, never more so than in the early 1990s when they appropriated Robert Indiana’s “LOVE” to indelibly spell “AIDS” and “infe©ted” modernist icons such as Rietveld chairs and Mondrian paintings by altering their color schemes. AA Bronson, the group’s surviving member speaks about General Idea’s trajectory and work and its keen interest in “viral” images. Since the end of General Idea in 1994, Bronson has embarked upon an acclaimed career as a solo artist and shamanic healer. Interviewer: Adam Welch, Carol and Morton Rapp Curator, Modern and Contemporary Art, Art Gallery of Ontario, and Curator of the 2022 General Idea retrospective.

Dance Performance | Maedeup: An Encounter with Korean Visual Heritage through Contemporary Dance (In Person AND Online!)
A live, non-verbal performance that reimagines Korean classical painting through contemporary performance. Named after the Korean word for “knot,” Maedeup evokes the weaving together of image, movement, sound, and memory. Inspired by the visual world of Shin Yun-bok (Hyewon), an 18th-century Korean painter renowned for his portrayals of women and everyday life, the work unfolds without spoken text. Foley performance, tableau vivant, live visuals, and live camera work transform his paintings into living, time-based events in which body, sound, and image converge in real time. The production offers an encounter with Korean visual heritage beyond language and cultural boundaries. The project brings Korean cultural heritage into contemporary performance and into dialogue with international audiences. Led by director and professor Kim JiYoung, the production brings together professional performers connected to SeoulArts in an interdisciplinary collaboration spanning theatre, visual art, sound, photography, and live media. Kim’s recent work explores new ways of connecting Korean tradition with contemporary expression.

Gallery Talk | Curator & Writer Discuss the Legacy of Johannes Vermeer at a Landmark Museum
It's thought that only around thirty-five paintings by the Dutch Golden Age artist survive in the entire world. Of these, five are at this museum--more than at any other museum. Explore the beloved 17th-century Dutch painter in a talk with curator Adam Eaker and writer Ruth Bernard Yeazell, author of Vermeer's Afterlives. Vermeer's works at this museum trace his artistic developments, from early explorations to refined mastery. Though his masterpieces are famous today, Vermeer virtually dropped out of sight after his death in 1675, remaining relatively obscure until the end of the 19th century. Gain insight into the rise of this extraordinary painter and the ways in which Vermeer's captivating art has been interpreted through the centuries.

Discussion | Art Scholars Discuss the Relationship between Florine Stettheimer & Georgia O’Keeffe (In Person AND Online!)
Barbara Bloemink (lead scholar of the forthcoming Florine Stettheimer Catalogue Raisonné Project) and Barbara Buhler Lynes (Georgia O’Keeffe: Catalogue Raisonné) in a conversation moderated by renowned journalist Julia Halperin. Florine Stettheimer and Georgia O’Keeffe are prominent American women modern artists. As friends, they exhibited widely in galleries and museums — and were highly admired by curators and art critics during the first half of the 20th century. Their approaches to artmaking, however, are remarkably different. Bloemink and Lynes will discuss the artists’ relationship, how they controlled their public image, how their work differs and yet reveals a mutual interest in simultaneity, and more. This event will also call attention to published and forthcoming catalogues raisonnés that document all known works by Stettheimer and O’Keeffe.

Play | Moliere's Don Juan: Provocative Tragicomedy with Live Music (in the Park)
Don Juan has abandoned Elvira, whom he seduced into breaking her vows and marrying him. Over the course of a single adventure-filled day, he and his loyal sidekick, Sganarelle, encounter many of the people Don Juan has betrayed. As he seduces women, defies social conventions, mocks religion, and revels in provocation, his appetite for transgression seems impossible to satisfy. Yet the signs are unmistakable: the walls are closing in. Will he truly repent? Or will he just pretend to, like so many around him, and continue down the same path to the bitter end? Playwright: Moliere Translator/Adaptor: Stephen Wadsworth Director: Lucie Tiberghien Cast: Keshav Moodliar, Kaliswa Brewster, Naomi Lorrain, Daniel Pearce, Michelle Veintimilla This presentation will feature live original cello music by Drama Desk-nominated composer Johnathan Moore.

Dance Performance | Maedeup: An Encounter with Korean Visual Heritage through Contemporary Dance (In Person AND Online!)
A live, non-verbal performance that reimagines Korean classical painting through contemporary performance. Named after the Korean word for "knot," Maedeup evokes the weaving together of image, movement, sound, and memory. Inspired by the visual world of Shin Yun-bok (Hyewon), an 18th-century Korean painter renowned for his portrayals of women and everyday life, the work unfolds without spoken text. Foley performance, tableau vivant, live visuals, and live camera work transform his paintings into living, time-based events in which body, sound, and image converge in real time. The production offers an encounter with Korean visual heritage beyond language and cultural boundaries. The project brings Korean cultural heritage into contemporary performance and into dialogue with international audiences. Led by director and professor Kim JiYoung, the production brings together professional performers connected to SeoulArts in an interdisciplinary collaboration spanning theatre, visual art, sound, photography, and live media. Kim's recent work explores new ways of connecting Korean tradition with contemporary expression.

Talk | Explore Dorothy Day's Journey to Possible Sainthood
Robert Ellsberg, a former managing editor of the CW and editor of Dorothy Day’s writings, will describe her New York journey. Dorothy Day, champion of the oppressed, witness for peace, was born in Brooklyn and spent most of her life in New York’s Lower East Side. In the 1920s, while working as a journalist for progressive papers, she became close to Eugene O'Neill and others in the Greenwich Village scene. After her conversion to Catholicism, she founded the Catholic Worker newspaper and the first of her “houses of hospitality,” combining service to the poor and work for justice. The founder of the Catholic Worker movement, Dorothy Day established her first “houses of hospitality” in Manhattan’s Lower East Side in 1933, living with the poor, practicing the “works of mercy,” and struggling for peace and justice. Greenwich Village played an important part in her early life, when she was close to Eugene O’Neill and immersed herself in the literary/activist/bohemian scene. Later, as a Catholic, she modeled a version of radical Christianity, was arrested repeatedly for acts of civil disobedience during the civil defense drills of the 1950s, and spent time in the Women’s House of Detention on Sixth Avenue.

Talk | Classical Scholar Discusses Martha Graham's Greek Myth-Inspired Choreography (In Person AND Online!)
In this program, Ronnie Ancona draws material from her new book, Martha Graham's Greek Myth-Based Dances and Her Collaboration with Isamu Noguchi. She argues that the bold and woman-centered receptions of Greek myth created by Graham emerged from Graham and Noguchi's mutual understandings of space and movement, objects and bodies. She traces the influences of ancient Greek myth on these dances as well as the ways in which Graham (and Noguchi) have created something new from this heritage through their own interpretations. This presentation will include photos and video clips.

Author Reading | Renowned Composer Shares Her New Book, Mirror: A Novel in Reflections
Lera Auerbach, writer, composer, and artist, reads an excerpt from her book. The book is a genre-defying Russian-language novel in reflections, where memory transcends time and prose moves with the architecture of music. Subtitled A Novel in Reflections, Mirror is not a conventional novel. It is diary and monodrama, confession and labyrinth, musical score and mythic theatre. Composed in twenty-four preludes and twenty-four postludes, with trios, mirrored returns, inversions, and a final coda, the book transforms literary form into an act of reflection. One part answers another; one image reappears altered; one memory casts a shadow across another. The result is a work in which prose behaves like music.

A conversation on the occasion of the new book, The Archival Exhibition: A Decade of Research at the Arthur Ross Architecture Gallery, 2006–2016 by Mark Wasiuta. The book gathers thirteen exhibitions from a decade of curatorial research at Columbia GSAPP’s Arthur Ross Architecture Gallery, examining the archival exhibition as a mode and method of architecture. Across these projects, architecture appears as a field coordinated by documents, articulating the archive as a shifting process rather than a stable repository. Wasiuta will be joined in conversation by Elizabeth Diller of Diller Scofidio + Renfro, exploring the role of the document in their work. The conversation will be introduced by José Esparza Chong Cuy, Executive Director of Storefront, who will then join the discussion. Copies of the publication will be available for sale.

Performance | Cookie: Italian Picaresque-Inspired Performance Unfolding around a Sculpture
The play follows the traditional picaresque format, a literary style developed during the height of Spain's Golden Age in which a clever but poor hero, a picaro, uses their wits and tricks to survive in a corrupt and crumbling society. Drawing inspiration from 16th-century picaresque novellas like Lazarillo de Tormes and Francisco de Quevedo's The Swindler, Cookie is a story of desperation disguised as elite ambition. At its center is Gunnar Churchwell, a sleazy yet charismatic suit salesman who arrives in Madrid, only to be recruited by the egomaniacal ringleader of a grifting crew of makeshift "tailors." Their baseline rule for survival is simple: "never let them know you are hungry." Cookie unfolds around The Lair, a twisted aluminum sculpture resembling a street scaffold. The performance is a story of desperation disguised as elite ambition, highlighting anti-heroes who maneuver through the cracks of a glittering superpower purely to secure their next meal. Georgia Gardner Gray works across painting, performance, and theater. Her vivid canvases depict exaggerated figures in social spaces--bars, apartments, rehearsal rooms, city streets--each imbued with the comedy, absurdity, instability, and contradiction inherent in our modern lives. As an accomplished playwright, Gray captures the tension between intimacy and display, self-awareness and satire.

Classical Music | An Afternoon of Italian Notturno Romances (In Person AND Online!)
Teatro Nuovo: Amalia Crevani, soprano, Gabrielle Barkidjija, mezzo-soprano, Matt Zucker, cello, and Will Crutchfield, fortepiano. A staple of chamber music in the late Classical and early Romantic era (circa 1780-1830) was the Italian Notturno for two voices with continuo or fully-composed keyboard part. This genre, a descendant of the Baroque chamber cantata, remains very little explored today; hundreds of gems await rediscovery. Teatro Nuovo's concentration on early Romantic opera poises its musicians to lead this revival. Teatro Nuovo's 1804 Lonsdale fortepiano (plus cello as appropriate) provides the ideal period accompaniment.

Opening Reception | Humanist Modernity: Exhibition Exploring the Legacies of Significant Figures of American & Polish Architecture
This event showcases the work of Stanisława Sandecka-Nowicka and Maciej (Matthew) Nowicki. They were two significant figures in the history of American and Polish architecture. Named for a concept developed in the 1940s by architects Maciej (Matthew) Nowicki and Stanisława Sandecka-Nowicka, Humanist modernity explores their vision of modernism as a human-centered approach to design—one concerned with understanding who a building is really for, and how it binds a human being to the space around them. The exhibition follows this idea across their work and asks what their architecture offers us today.

Staged Reading | Covenant: Original Interfaith Drama
A Vatican guesthouse meeting room. A long table, four chairs, a window overlooking a walled courtyard garden that hasn't seen rain in weeks. Over thirty-six hours, four people - a Filipino Cardinal, a British-Ghanaian climate lawyer, a Lakota spiritual leader, and a young Vatican aide - discover that the interfaith climate dialogue they were convened to conduct is not the conversation they actually need to have. What follows is a reckoning: with what each tradition has enabled, what each person has privately failed to do, and whether language adequate to the crisis they are gathered around actually exists. Written by William A. Smith. Directed by Maria Mileaf.

Martha Schwendener hosts a talk and launch of her recently released title, The Society of the Screen: Vilém Flusser’s Radical Prescience. The author will be in conversation with Eileen Quinlan and Liz Deschenes. In this book on the idiosyncratic and prescient Czech-Brazilian philosopher, Schwendener explores the profound effect of art on Vilém Flusser’s thought. The Society of the Screen reveals how Flusser’s lifelong engagement with experimental practices—from abstract painting and concrete poetry in Brazil to video, cybernetics, and photography in Europe and the United States—as well as his extensive involvement with the São Paulo Biennial informed his belief that we were moving from “history”—a civilization informed by linear writing—into “post-history,” dominated by technical images

Opera | Puccini's Suor Angelica: One-Act Opera with All-Women Cast
This gorgeous opera--one of the composer's personal favorites, yet rarely performed as he intended, with the visceral resonance of a genuine pipe organ--will be performed with a newly commissioned chamber orchestration. Suor Angelica takes place entirely inside a 17th-century convent cloister, lending a site-specific, immersive nature to this performance. A story of family, lies, and heartbreak set within the restrictive world of cloistered nuns, this is the only opera in Puccini's entire canon that features no men onstage (the male chorus sings offstage). It offers a fascinating, intimate look into female relationships and the dynamics of a religious order. Guest artist Mikhaela Mahony directs.

Drawing on her book, Napoleon Sarony's Living Pictures: The Celebrity Photograph in Gilded Age New York, Dr. Erin Pauwels explores the remarkable career of this eccentric artist and entrepreneur whose theatrical approach to photography transformed portraiture into performance. Through lavish staging, carefully directed poses, and an instinctive understanding of public image, Sarony helped shape the modern celebrity portrait while influencing ideas about fame, artistic identity, branding, and copyright that continue to shape how public figures cultivate their images today.

Book Discussion | Metropolitan Museum of Art-Featured Photographer Shares His Latest Book, The Mental Image
Stephen Shore shares his new book in a conversation with James Willing. The Mental Image is the latest book by Stephen Shore, one of the most influential photographers, writers, and teachers working today. Here, Shore turns to the inner life of images: how photographs are imagined, sensed, and carried in the body. The sequel to his global bestseller The Nature of Photographs (2013), this richly illustrated volume brings together numerous anecdotes, influences, references, and teachings to show how visualisation, attention, and embodiment can fundamentally alter how we perceive the world around us. Both practical and philosophical, The Mental Image offers a luminous and disciplined approach to seeing, for photographers, artists, and anyone drawn to a deeper understanding of perception.

Book Discussion | Pulitzer Prize-Winning Author Shares Her "Stunning New Novel," The Things We Never Say
A conversation with Elizabeth Strout. In her most recent novel, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Elizabeth Strout tells the story of a beloved teacher, Artie Dam, and a chance incident that sparks a powerful realization and change in his life. He looks out at the world - at himself and the people around him - and turns a question over and over in his mind: How is it that we know so little about one another, even those closest to us? With exquisite prose and profound insight, Strout's new novel provides a poignant meditation on loneliness, friendship, parenthood, and the importance of truth in a capsizing world. "A stunning new novel from one of our most acclaimed observers of the human heart." - The Guardian

Performance | Cookie: Italian Picaresque-Inspired Performance Unfolding around a Sculpture
The play follows the traditional picaresque format, a literary style developed during the height of Spain's Golden Age in which a clever but poor hero, a picaro, uses their wits and tricks to survive in a corrupt and crumbling society. Drawing inspiration from 16th-century picaresque novellas like Lazarillo de Tormes and Francisco de Quevedo's The Swindler, Cookie is a story of desperation disguised as elite ambition. At its center is Gunnar Churchwell, a sleazy yet charismatic suit salesman who arrives in Madrid, only to be recruited by the egomaniacal ringleader of a grifting crew of makeshift "tailors." Their baseline rule for survival is simple: "never let them know you are hungry." Cookie unfolds around The Lair, a twisted aluminum sculpture resembling a street scaffold. The performance is a story of desperation disguised as elite ambition, highlighting anti-heroes who maneuver through the cracks of a glittering superpower purely to secure their next meal. Georgia Gardner Gray works across painting, performance, and theater. Her vivid canvases depict exaggerated figures in social spaces--bars, apartments, rehearsal rooms, city streets--each imbued with the comedy, absurdity, instability, and contradiction inherent in our modern lives. As an accomplished playwright, Gray captures the tension between intimacy and display, self-awareness and satire.

Dance Performance | Dance about Women, Friendship, & Changing Times
The Moving Architects’ Restless Women is an evening of dance. From The New Jam a 1960s-stylized quartet marked by Stepford Wives-esque precision, flashes of abandon, and a soundtrack of surf and British rock; to Where She Once Stood: Boarder’s Kitchen a jazz-infused duet portraying the resilient lives of women seeking work, safety, and community in a 1930s boarding house; to From the Sea, Across the Field, Up the Hill, a bluegrass-scored work about friends embracing the landscape and each other in a literary-inspired world, these works and the exceptional dancers who bring these stories to life exemplify The Moving Architects’ power to create compelling worlds filled with rigorous, spatially alive, fiercely feminine dance.

Opera | Puccini's Suor Angelica: One-Act Opera with All-Women Cast
This gorgeous opera--one of the composer's personal favorites, yet rarely performed as he intended, with the visceral resonance of a genuine pipe organ--will be performed with a newly commissioned chamber orchestration. Suor Angelica takes place entirely inside a 17th-century convent cloister, lending a site-specific, immersive nature to this performance. A story of family, lies, and heartbreak set within the restrictive world of cloistered nuns, this is the only opera in Puccini's entire canon that features no men onstage (the male chorus sings offstage). It offers a fascinating, intimate look into female relationships and the dynamics of a religious order. Guest artist Mikhaela Mahony directs.

Dance Performance | Site-Specific Dance Duet, Physical Dialogue Finding Balance
This performance brings together dancers Asha Thomas and Robert Cornejo in an intimate dance that offers a sensitive lecture on communication across generations. By placing these two artists at distinct, contrasting moments in their lives and careers, the choreography becomes a living conversation where maturity and youth meet. Their physical dialogue navigates the deep-seated difficulties of finding balance, letting the human relationship play out directly within the environment around them. Choreographer Leo Lerus's practice frequently draws inspiration from the Guadeloupean Gwoka music tradition, exploring the island's natural and cultural ability to adapt to change. Through his movement research, Lerus explores environments in a delicate natural balance and examines how that equilibrium is altered by contemporary input. By weaving these ideas into the duet, the performance reflects the complex mix of feelings around environmental preservation--using the movement of two different generations to juxtapose disappointment and anger with an enduring hope and a shared movement toward a positive future. The performance takes place as well at 2:00 pm and 3:30 pm.

Dance Performance | Site-Specific Duet, Physical Dialogue Finding Balance
This performance brings together dancers Asha Thomas and Robert Cornejo in an intimate dance that offers a sensitive lecture on communication across generations. By placing these two artists at distinct, contrasting moments in their lives and careers, the choreography becomes a living conversation where maturity and youth meet. Their physical dialogue navigates the deep-seated difficulties of finding balance, letting the human relationship play out directly within the environment around them. Choreographer Leo Lerus's practice frequently draws inspiration from the Guadeloupean Gwoka music tradition, exploring the island's natural and cultural ability to adapt to change. Through his movement research, Lerus explores environments in a delicate natural balance and examines how that equilibrium is altered by contemporary input. By weaving these ideas into the duet, the performance reflects the complex mix of feelings around environmental preservation--using the movement of two different generations to juxtapose disappointment and anger with an enduring hope and a shared movement toward a positive future.

Play | Baggage From BaghDAD: Becoming My Father’s Daughter -- Original Solo Show Exploring Displacement, Prejudice, & Cultural Assimilation
A gripping, award-winning show that mirrors today's growing intolerance of race and religion. Due to religious persecution during the 1941 “Farhud” pogrom that took place in Baghdad, Valerie’s paternal Middle Eastern Jewish family was forced to flee Iraq and build a new home in America. This play highlights her family’s struggle to immigrate to a new land and transcend their harrowing past, so that love and the importance of family triumph. It’s not just a Jewish story, but a narrative that anyone can relate to, with having to immigrate to another country, being forced to evacuate during wartime, suffering bullying, and the ramifications of having to adapt to a foreign culture that’s not so welcoming. Written and performed by award-winning actress Valerie David.

Classical Music | One of NYC's Most Exciting Chamber Orchestras and Its Widely-Praised Conductor
Parlando Orchestra distinguishes itself by integrating historical and cultural context into every performance. Founder-conductor Ian Niederhoffer, described by New York Classical Review as "charismatic, enthusiastic and articulate," leads the ensemble with a uniquely engaging approach. About the Piece In 1924, Austrian director Hugo Bettauer released a satirical film imagining a Vienna emptied of its Jewish population -- a dark comic warning drawn from the rhetoric of rising nationalist politicians. One year later, Bettauer was assassinated by a Nazi sympathizer who was acquitted and celebrated. Banned in 1933, the film nearly vanished until a pristine print surfaced at a Paris flea market in 2015. Parlando presents a live screening with orchestra of the newly restored Die Stadt ohne Juden (The City without Jews), featuring Olga Neuwirth's 2018 score -- a visceral, urgent work that transforms this century-old cautionary tale into an unsettlingly contemporary one.

Dance Performance | El Péndulo (The Pendulum): Immersive Improvisational Dance Reflecting Cultural Perspectives, from Collectivism to Individualism.
Throughout this interactive piece, dancers explore an array of movement ideas from a relational perspective, shifting between instances of connection and disconnection. While the dancers swing, suspend, sway, and vacillate, we invite the audience to stand or walk during the performance, observing the piece from varied perspectives. They are encouraged to get close to the performers, appreciate details, connect with the dancers, and become integral parts of the experience. This project stems from an idea that has become increasingly relevant in our current political climate. Historically, the ‘pendulum’ has swung incessantly from one dominant political perspective to the opposite. We look at the pendulum's opposite ends as reflecting our cultural perspectives, ranging from collectivism to individualism.

Lecture | Biographer Explores the Groundbreaking Work of Jazz Dancer & Choreographer Buddy Bradley
Maureen Footer has written a new biography of Buddy Bradley, Feel the Floor, that delves into his far-reaching influence. Nearly every famous name in dance in the mid-twentieth century was touched by the innovative, often groundbreaking work of the jazz dancer and choreographer. Iconic choreographers from George Balanchine to Frederick Ashton, Jerome Robbins to Agnes deMille, were among the many major artists who drew inspiration from his work. Here, with a panel including tap, jazz, and ballet dancers, the subject of how one art form can significantly influence another will be discussed and demonstrated, live. When Balanchine and Bradley were brought together in London in 1931 to co-choreograph Charles B. Cochran's famous revue, the star, and the chorus had been trained by Buddy Bradley, providing Balanchine with his first hands-on opportunity to experiment with jazz mechanisms and movement. Some of Bradley and Balanchine's "creative synergies" will be displayed by the dancers in work such as Agon, Rubies and Symphony in C.

Staged Reading | Last Night At Mikell's: Original Drama Based on James Baldwin's Life
James Baldwin is writing himself into bad health. After two heart attacks and being hospitalized for hepatitis, the globe-trotting author returns to New York City for some rest, relaxation, and much-needed TLC. First on his itinerary is the iconic jazz club Mikell’s, a favorite hangout where he’s usually surrounded by adoring fans and his brother David tends bar. But things have changed since Jimmy last came home. To his surprise, Mikell’s is closing, and his entourage this night consists of just Maya Angelou and Miles Davis, good friends who meet him there because they also didn’t know. What’s intended as a celebration turns into an Irish wake for the not-yet deceased, instigated by Miles as Jimmy impulsively, on the spot, starts writing an elegy to his beloved old joint, enabled by David, while Maya tries to intervene. Written by Larry Muhammad Directed by Ron Beverly

Opening Reception | Chamber Play: Artworks in Conversation with Jackson Pollock & Samuel Beckett
An exhibition bringing together three radically different artists whose practices are rooted in deeply personal reflections on the human condition. At the center of the exhibition is Austrian artist Erwin Wurm, whose nearly five-decade-long practice challenges conventional definitions of sculpture through paradox, contradiction, physical action, and the transformation of familiar objects, gestures, and situations. His work explores the fragile relationship between individuals and their surroundings. The exhibition brings Wurm’s work into dialogue with Jackson Pollock and Samuel Beckett, revealing shared engagements with the limitations of their respective mediums. Through sculptures, films, photographs, works on paper, archival material, and screenings, Chamber Play examines art as a space for confronting the complexities of human existence.

Lecture | DIscussion on Newfound Artwork by Franz Kafka
A lecture by Andreas Kilcher (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) Zurich). The lecture will be followed by a conversation between Andreas Kilcher and Paul North (Maurice Natanson Professor of German and Professor of Philosophy at Yale University). The year 2019 brought a sensational discovery: hundreds of drawings by Franz Kafka that had been kept under lock and key for decades were made accessible. Although Kafka is renowned for his written work, his drawings are evidence of what his literary executor, Max Brod, termed his 'double talent'. Irresistible and full of fascinating figures, shifting from the realistic to the fantastic, the grotesque, the uncanny, and the carnivalesque, they illuminate a previously unknown side of the quintessential modernist author. Four new and fascinating stories can be told in relation to Kafka's drawings: the story of their transmission, the story of Kafka's engagement with the visual arts, the story of Kafka as a draftsman, and the story of his drawing practice in the context of his writing, which implies a complex aesthetic question: How are these drawings to be understood in their own right, yet at the same time as connected to his writing?

Book Discussion | Historical Novelist Shares Her Latest Title, What Happens at Nightfall
Lauren Willig launches her new book. About the Book: In the sprawling Gothic expanse of Brooklyn’s Green-Wood Cemetery, some secrets refuse to stay buried. Recently laid off and searching for purpose, Jess reluctantly joins her best friend on a supposedly fun nighttime cemetery tour. Separated from her group by accident, she discovers a bunch of terrified boys and a strange, ancient key. Both lead to Green-Wood’s surprisingly handsome resident arborist, Adam Chervinsky. Recently widowed, Adam has more to protect than the leafy residents of Green-Wood. His children, still dealing with the loss of their mother, are acting strangely. A haunting is afoot, and Jess seems to know more than she’s letting on. Sparks fly between Jess and Adam—and the unquiet spirits of Green-Wood rise from their century-long slumber.

Book Discussion | The Village Chronicles: Four Centuries of Bohemian New York -- Conversation with the Author
John Strausbaugh, author of The Village: 400 Years of Beats and Bohemians, Radicals and Rogues, a History of Greenwich Village, will share some of the fascinating stories from the book and celebrate 250 years of this Revolutionary Village. Across four centuries and especially over the last 250 years, Greenwich Village has been a magnet for misfits and a refuge for outsiders. Blacks, Italians and Irish, artists, anarchists and communists, gays and lesbians, intellectuals, eccentrics, visionaries and life's adventurers were all drawn here. In the 20th century a Who's Who of global culture came to "the Left Bank of America," from Kahlil Gibran to John and Yoko, Marcel Duchamp to Jimi Hendrix. They came because this tiny speck of real estate, a neighborhood they could stroll through in twenty minutes, was the one place in America where they were not only allowed but actively encouraged to live and express themselves freely.

This film dives deep into the extraordinary life and work of the artist-in-residence at NYC's Sanitation Department since 1977. A pioneering ecofeminist and social practice artist, Ukeles made the invisible labor of cleaning, caretaking and motherhood the focus of her artistic practice.

Director: Toby Perl Freilich The screening will be followed by a panel discussion with Cooper Union Professor Diana Agrest, former New York City Cultural Affairs Commissioner, Tom Finkelpearl, and the filmmaker, Toby Perl Freilich.

Book Discussion | Art Historians Discuss Their New Book, What Was America?
Elise Armani and Katy Siegel will be joined by Lauren O'Neill-Butler in a lively conversation about artists, communities, and citizens at a moment when art and culture were seen (and supported) as a civic good. Where is art going, who is it for, and what can it tell us about our world? To think these questions through, we might begin by looking back. Published this month, Elise Armani and Katy Siegel's book, What Was America? offers a prismatic view of American art and culture in the years leading up to the 1976 Bicentennial. Over ten years of planning, the Bicentennial inspired and supported an unprecedented culture boom across the United States, as artists, designers, performers, historians, writers, and participants of all kinds wrestled with the pressing issues of the day, including the environment, immigration, heritage, media, and what it means to be American. From individual artworks and blockbuster exhibitions to community quilts and time capsules, projects unfolded across wildly disparate venues, demographics, and geographies, eliciting mass participation in negotiating US history and imagining the nation's future. Many of the questions asked in 1976 resemble those of 2026, but the responses offered in that earlier moment make for an electric contrast with those of our own present--they also hold genuine potential for remaking our own future.

Workshop | Discover Coputational Poetry & Create Your Own Infinite Verse
Led by computational poet Prof. Allison Parrish and artist Prof. Blair Simmons (ITP/IMA, NYU Tisch), this workshop takes inspiration from Alison Knowles’s The House of Dust (1967), one of the earliest computer-generated poems. Coded in FORTRAN, the automated combinations of materials, locations, light sources, and inhabitants that populate the stanzas of this pioneering text are generated infinitely and printed in real time on a dot matrix printer. Participants will discover the ongoing value of Knowles’s creative methods and execute their own infinite poems. By experimenting with the materiality of written words and different printing technologies—including dot matrix, thermal, and inkjet—the group will explore how the meaning of a poem shifts dramatically depending on how it is made. Bring your laptop and experience the surprisingly liberating potential of printers in poetry! No prior creative writing or coding experience is necessary.

He will explain why a research grant brought him to New York to study Anna Atkins holdings at The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the New York Public Library, and how this historical research connects to contemporary questions of ecology, water, chemistry and photographic responsibility. The talk will conclude with an introduction to The Ecological Wetroom, an evolving, evidence-based installation and research project that reimagines the photographic wetroom as a visible ecological system, offering an initial look at its findings and future directions.

Over 300 photographs will be exhibited and visitors will be encouraged to vote for their favorite photograph. Vernacular photography, almost always anonymous, can be portraits, landscapes, still lives; snapshots commemorating all sorts of occasions, from family gatherings to graduations, picnics to funerals. Often found in flea markets, antique shops and garage sales, they are both documents and mysteries. Sometimes spontaneous, sometimes posed, vernacular photography marks the transition—and availability—of photography from the studio and the “photographer” to the public at large because of readily available and affordable cameras.

Opening Reception | Too Much Is Better Than Too Little: Multi-Artist Exhibition on Germany's Punk Scene
The first exhibition devoted to Alfred Hilsberg and ZickZack ever to be mounted outside Germany. The exhibition will feature rare and unseen records, badges, flyers, and posters from the collection of Christian Iffland; photography and heady documentation by Sabine Schwabroh; and early Super-8 films of Klaus Maeck (filmmaker and founder, in 1979, of Hamburg's first punk store, Rip Off Records). The late 1970s and early 1980s was a period of imaginative intensity, wild recklessness and magnificent mutation in Germany. Not just in Berlin, but in cities and regions across the country, teenagers who had caught the punk virus unlearned their instruments, made strange synthetic sounds that the radio stations and major labels regarded as anti-music, and created a fierce, fractured poetry out of the German language. Abwarts, DAF, Der Plan, Einsturzende Neubaten, Malaria!, Palais Schaumberg, Xmal Deutschland: at the peak of the Cold War, a time of No Wave and No Future, these bands--and hundreds like them--radiated an energy, dark wit and a spirit of experimentation that is still arresting, and in some cases waiting to be discovered still in 2026.

Lecture | Discover the Work of Spanish Painter Francisco Jose de Goya
This talk explores the life and work of an old master. Goya was well-versed in the best tradition of Spanish painting from El Greco to Velazquez; he is known as the last of the old masters and first of the moderns. In 1786, he became court painter to the Spanish Crown; his work includes portraits of the aristocracy and the royals, as well as tapestries. He shows no pity for the mighty, revealing their vanity, greed and emptiness. A severe illness in 1793 left him deaf, after which there is a thread of violence and fear in his work. He became a prolific master of etchings and aquatint, expressing fantastic nightmares. He abandoned Spain to retire to Bordeaux in 1824 and died there at age 82.

Classical Music | Directions For Making a Round Ark: Roundtable + Music
A chamber opera in three acts, composed by Stanzi Vaubel, Artistic Director of the Indeterminacy Festival, and Philippe Treuille, which tells the story of the primordial flood. Set in a richly imagined polytheistic world, the opera opens with the creation of humanity as a solution to the gods’ burdens—only for that solution to spiral into chaos. As humans multiply, their noise and presence provoke the wrath of Enlil, king of the gods. Enlil attempts to reduce the population through plague, drought, and ultimately a devastating flood. Each time, Enki intervenes, culminating in a secret warning to build a life-saving ark. Directions For Making a Round Ark reimagines one of humanity’s oldest stories. Inspired by the Babylonian Epic of Atrahasis, the earliest known version of the flood myth, written a thousand years before Noah’s Ark.

Talk | Comparative Literature Scholar Discusses Literary Censorship in the USSR (In Person AND Online!)
For Banned Books Week, Yasha Klots of the Tamizdat Project helps shed light on smuggled literature that defied Soviet censorship and illuminates the enduring power of the printed word. Throughout the Soviet century, tamizdat (literally, “published over there,” or abroad) comprised manuscripts rejected, censored, or never submitted for publication at home but smuggled through various channels across the Iron Curtain and printed elsewhere, with or without their authors’ knowledge or consent. Until perestroika, when the curtain began to rust, these books were used as weapons on the cultural fronts of the Cold War. In this talk, Yasha Klots will speak about the history of tamizdat as a literary practice and political institution from the Cold War era to the present, when censorship and political repressions in Russia and Belarus have forced an increasing number of authors, publishers, and readers into exile, especially after the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. He will also speak about the Tamizdat Project, a public scholarship initiative for the study of banned books from the former USSR and Easter Europe, as well as a small press and a philanthropic organization.

Talk | Artists Discuss AI-Generated Images & War Photography (In Person AND Online!)
This roundtable takes a limited edition artist book, Seeing Against Seeing, as its central case study, bringing author/artist Alexey Yurenev into conversation with Bogna Konior and Fred Ritchin. They will examine how AI-generated images transform the conditions of war photography. Yurenev’s book, combines a bespoke GAN trained on WWII-era imagery with archival research and interviews, producing synthetic photographs that echo historical visual language while attempting to render what was never recorded: trauma, absence, and the psychological residue of war. Within this framework, Konior’s essay, "War in the Age of Infinite Evidence," provides a critical lens on the shift from evidentiary scarcity to saturation.

Book Discussion | Bestselling Novelists Discuss Their Books Commenting on Italian Identity (In Person AND Online!)
Jennifer Anton, author of Under the Light of the Italian Moon, and Laura Morelli, author of The Keeper of Lost Art, discuss their novels and celebrate Italian Heritage in conversation with Lisa Ackerman. Under the Light of the Italian Moon tells the story of Nina Argenta, the daughter of a village midwife in a small mountain town in northern Italy, whose dreams of joining the man she loves in America are shattered by family duty and the rise of Mussolini. As fascism tightens its grip and World War II brings Nazi occupation to her village, Nina must summon extraordinary courage to protect those she loves. Inspired by the true experiences of the author's own family, the novel explores the enduring bonds of family, the resilience of ordinary women, and the choices that shape identity across generations. The Keeper of Lost Art by Laura Morelli tells the story of twelve-year-old Stella, coming of age in Tuscany 1943, in a world at war. When her mother sends her to safety with distant relatives at a villa in Tuscany, she finds them tasked with a great responsibility: hiding over 300 priceless masterpieces from the Uffizi Galleries. Inspired by the true story of the heroic efforts to safeguard Italy's cultural treasures during World War II, The Keeper of Lost Art is a sweeping and emotionally powerful tale of love, loss, and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity.

Rodriguez writes with rhythm, verve, and an artist’s POV, painting a vivid picture of his native Bronx, the tattoos and rooftop graffiti that mesmerized him as a kid, and the teachers who saw his potential and nourished it.

Film | Once Upon a Time in Harlem (2026): Culture Documentary (+ Filmmaker Discussion)
A decade after his death, genre-defying filmmaker William Greaves has one last trick up his sleeve with what he considered the most important event he captured on film: a 1972 party he engineered with the living luminaries of the Harlem Renaissance. For four hours, this extraordinary group--many of whom had not seen each other in fifty years--reminisced, critiqued, argued, laughed, and drank while wrestling with their place in a rapidly shifting cultural landscape. Shot on 16mm film, newly restored and now directed by Greaves's son David, this landmark film is at once a self-exploration and an inquiry into the heart of the critical mass of energy called the Harlem Renaissance. William Greaves's intent was not only to document these artists and intellectuals as they spoke about their lives and work. but also to plumb the meaning of the extraordinary creative period in which they lived to help us better understand how culture has been passed on from one generation to another and the role that the artist plays in keeping it alive. Director: William Greaves, David Greaves Followed by a conversation between filmmakers David Greaves and Liani Greaves and Racquel Gates, Associate Professor, Film and Media Studies.

Film | A Land Within (2025): German/Italian Drama FIlm (+ Filmmaker Q&A)
Paul, a talented artist, hopes to escape his rural upbringing in the Northern Italian region of South Tyrol, whose German-speaking population has found itself torn between Austria and Italy over the course of both world wars.

When Anton becomes the prime suspect in an attack and flees as a wanted terrorist, Paul decides to put off his plans to help Anton’s wife, Anna. Framed by the complicated relationship between two brothers and the loved ones they hope to protect, A Land Within explores the dynamics of masculinity, populism, and radicalization at play in a pivotal moment in South Tyrolean history. Director: Michael Kofler Cast: Thomas Prenn, Aenne Schwarz, Laurence Rupp, Niclas Carli, Francesco Acquaroli, Andrea Fuorto German, Italian, and South Tyrolean with English subtitles.

Film | Stanley Kubrick's The Shining (1980): Psychological Horror Film with Jack Nicholson & Shelley Duvall
A family heads to an isolated hotel for the winter, where a sinister presence influences the father into violence. At the same time, his psychic son sees horrifying forebodings from both the past and the future. Director: Stanley Kubrick Cast: Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, Scatman Crothers, Danny Lloyd Stanley Kubrick was an American film director, screenwriter, producer, and photographer. Widely considered one of the greatest filmmakers of all time, his films were nearly all adaptations of novels or short stories, spanning a number of genres and gaining recognition for their intense attention to detail, innovative cinematography, extensive set design, and dark humor. While many of Kubrick's films were controversial and initially received mixed reviews upon release, most were nominated for Academy Awards, Golden Globes, or BAFTA Awards, and underwent critical re-evaluations. Jack Nicholson is an American retired actor and filmmaker. Nicholson is widely regarded as one of the greatest actors of the 20th century. Throughout his five-decade career, he received numerous accolades, including three Academy Awards, three BAFTA Film Awards, six Golden Globe Awards, and a Grammy Award. He also received the American Film Institute's Life Achievement Award in 1994 and the Kennedy Center Honor in 2001. Shelley Duvall was an American actress and producer widely known for her portrayal of distinctive, often eccentric characters. In the 1980s, Duvall became famous for her leading roles, which include Olive Oyl in Altman's live-action feature version of Popeye (1980) and Wendy Torrance in Stanley Kubrick's horror film The Shining (1980).

Film | Korean Film Festival: Karma (2026) -- Korean Documentary (+ Director Q&A)
Inside a small judicial scrivener's office at the Seongnam Branch of Suwon District Court, people arrive daily carrying the weight of debt. The father helps them file for rehabilitation and bankruptcy, though he himself is drowning in what he owes. Eight years ago, the filmmaker - who once dreamed of becoming a poet - abandoned his studies and took a seat beside his father, fearing that debt might one day drive him to suicide. As a clerk, he witnesses the endless circulation of suffering caused by money, obligation, and survival. Threaded through this struggle is the quiet presence of his mother, a Buddhist nun who returned to monastic life to repay the debts of her temple, and who eventually achieved financial peace. Between a father still struggling and a mother who endured, the film searches for a modest hope: not redemption, but the possibility of continuing to live. Director: Kim Myun-woo Intro and Q&A with KIM MYUNWOO and KIM SUNAH. English subtitles available.

Lecture | Celebrate the Life of the Father of the Dadaist Art/Literature Movement
An event dedicated to the surreal work of Tristan Tzara. This year marks the 130th anniversary of his birth. Tristan Tzara (1896 – 1963) was a Romanian and French avant-garde poet, essayist, and performance artist best known as a founder and chief theorist of the anti-establishment Dada movement. Operating out of the Cabaret Voltaire in Zurich during World War I, Tzara spearheaded a chaotic, nihilistic assault on traditional bourgeois culture and societal standards, which he viewed as complicit in the horrors of the war. Valery Oisteanu will present his view on the historical spiral of DADA through Romania, Paris, America, and globally. Tzara in Paris and his conflicts with Breton. The globalization of Dada and the American contribution have been continuous since 1913 till today.

Film | L'Eclisse (1962): Italian Romantic Drama Directed by Michelangelo Antonioni
L'eclisse tells the story of a young woman who leaves one lover and drifts into a relationship with another. Using the architecture of Rome as a backdrop for the doomed affair, Antonioni achieves the apotheosis of his style in this return to the theme that preoccupied him the most: the difficulty of connection in an alienating modern world. Director: Michelangelo Antonioni Cast: Alain Delon, Monica Vitti, Francisco Rabal, Lilla Brignone, Louis Seigner Michelangelo Antonioni was an Italian film director, screenwriter, and editor. His films have been described as "enigmatic and intricate mood pieces" that feature striking visual composition, subdued narratives, and a preoccupation with modern landscapes. His work substantially influenced subsequent world art cinema, including the slow cinema movement. Antonioni received numerous awards and nominations throughout his career, winning the Palme d'Or, the Golden Lion, the Golden Bear, and the Golden Leopard. In Italian with English subtitles.

Book Discussion | Art Historian & Critic Shares Her 2025 Book on the History of Artists' Protests
Writer and editor Lauren O’Neill-Butler discusses her new book, The War of Art. Named a best book of 2025 by NPR, The War of Art tells the history of artist-led activism and the global political and aesthetic debates from the 1960s to the present. Artists in America have long battled against injustices, believing that art can, in fact, “do more.” The War of Art tells this history of artist-led activism and the global political and aesthetic debates from the 1960s to the present. In contrast to the financialized art market and celebrity artists, the book explores the power of collective effort — from protesting to philanthropy, and from wheat-pasting to planting a field of wheat.

Classical Music | Italian Chamber Works by Vivaldi, Handel, & More from the Time of the American Revolution
In recognition of America at 250 years, singers Sarah Fleiss and Morgan Mastrangelo and their baroque ensemble, Split the Lark, explore the musical spirit of the time. From figures like Antonio Vivaldi and Giovanni Battista Pergolesi—who cemented the Italianate baroque style—to Georg Frideric Handel and Thomas Arne—who adopted these sensibilities for English-speaking audiences in London—Italian opera was at the height of its power in the late 1700s. This musical form marked a shift in taste: from monarchical sway to public control. The ensemble will also present lesser-known works by Christoph Willibald Gluck, Nicola Porpora, and Pietro Alessandro Guglielmi, whose La quakera spiritosa (“The Spirited Quaker”) details a young American girl’s rebellion against her father.

About the book: On a single spring afternoon in New York City, Gene Mills—a once-successful writer now living on fumes—hosts friends in his apartment while waiting for an art auction that could change everything. The paintings on the block were made by his ex-wife, now a global art star. They depict her affair, her ambition, and the life she detonated when she left him. Gene believes selling them is justice. Or survival. Or both. Getting Even/Letting Go is a novel about what remains when intimacy turns transactional, and whether freedom can ever be purchased without exacting a final, private price.

Dance Performance | Open Rehearsal: A Choreographic Journey
Artists host an intimate first look at the creative process of our developing work, Exposed. This rehearsal was followed by a Wine and Cheese Reception. Exposed is an evening-length work that explores vulnerability, vision, and courage. The scenic design creates an ever-changing landscape of pathways, levels, and partitions that conceals, distorts, confounds, beckons, and demands resilience. The choreography traces a journey from fragmentation and restraint to openness and release, unfolding through fluid partnering, interconnected ensemble work, sweeping phrases, buoyant lifts, and soaring moments of suspension that embody trust and transformation.

Book Discussion | James Beard Award-Winning TV Food Expert Shares Her New Book on Chinese Cuisine
Fuchsia Dunlop explores the magical complexity of one of the world's greatest cuisines. 'Fuchsia Dunlop has done more to explain real Chinese cooking to non-Chinese cooks than anyone', according to The New York Times. Dunlop, a four-time James Beard award winner and TV food expert (Chef's Table; Anthony Bourdain's Parts Unknown) has already explored Hunan cooking and Szechuan food with her large legion of readers. Now, in her latest book, she tackles the "five tastes" which a Chinese chef needs to be able to marshal harmoniously: salty, sweet, sour, bitter and pungent. The delectable result might be green beans with "strange-flavor" sauce, spicy peanut butter noodles, or a steamed fish that sings with citrus notes.

Staged Reading | Hallway House: Original Romantic, Friendship Drama
Dianne, Emily, and Michael lived on the same coed freshman hallway at college, and when Emily and Michael's lives fall apart, they take refuge in the large house that Dianne, as a successful romance writer, owns. The friends are obsessed with the Algonquin Roundtable. They quote the witty Algonquinites: Dorothy Parker and so on. Emily and Michael worry that their odd, intense friendship and obscure reference points make it hard for them to have long-term relationships with "normal" people. Currently, Emily's marriage is falling apart, and she goes a final round with her soon-to-be-ex-husband when he stops by. Meanwhile, Michael, after years alone, is thinking of starting a new relationship with Connor, who is much younger and knows nothing of the literary figures the three friends admire. But maybe that does not matter, and maybe Connor should not be underestimated. Directed by Judy Klass. Written by David Barlow.

Film | Two Prosecutors (2025): German Historical Drama (+ Filmmaker Discussion)
Summoned with a blood-written note smuggled out of a prison block, an idealistic state lawyer pushes past the leery authorities to interview an elderly, broken-down Bolshevik. The young attorney, determined to expose the miscarriages of justice that landed the man in confinement, finds the eye of the state turned on him instead, as an ever-tightening net encircles his investigation. Set at the height of the Great Purge and drenched in the paranoia of Stalin's police state, filmmaker Sergei Loznitsa's latest triumph is a chilling, Kafkaesque thriller about the impunity of power and matter-of-fact horrors of fascism. Director: Sergei Loznitsa Cast: Aleksandr Kuznetsov, Aleksandr Filippenko, Anatoliy Beliy, Andris Keiss The post-screening Q&A with director Sergei Loznitsa will be moderated by Mark Lipovetsky.

Staged Reading | Best Line Wins: Original Comedy on Friendship & Ambition
Nichols & May were one of the greatest comedy duos of all time-- they performed together for only four years (and were lovers for only three days, or so the legend goes), but their comedy shaped a generation. After disbanding their act, the talented and charming Mike Nichols goes on to be an incredibly successful director of stage and screen, while the brilliant but "difficult" Elaine May has more of a roller coaster career, struggling as a screenwriter and director, ultimately making a living as a ghostwriter and go-to script doctor. When her old partner approaches her to write the screenplay for a comedy he's set to direct-- an English adaptation of the French film La Cage Aux Folles -- Elaine must wrestle with what matters more: succeeding on her own or reuniting with the partner who has always known her true worth. A comedy with plenty of belly laughs and a couple of solid gut punches. Written by Beth Kander.

Classical Music | A Child of Our Time: Orchestral & Choral Performance Drawing on African American Spirituals
This performance invites audiences to reflect on where we have been, where we are, and the future we want to create. More than a concert, A Child of Our Time is seen as a reminder of the power of music to bear witness, challenge injustice, and bring people together. Written in response to the rise of fascism in Europe and the violence of Kristallnacht in 1938, Tippett's powerful oratorio for chorus and orchestra draws on African American spirituals. For Tippett, these songs expressed a universal truth: even in the face of injustice, the human spirit endures. Singers from the New York Choral Society (NYCHORAL) will join the Mannes Orchestra, conducted by David Hayes, with an acclaimed cast of soloists from the Mannes faculty: Laquita Mitchell, William Burden, Margaret Lattimore, and Stephen Powell.

Tour | Haunted Photowalk through the NYC Streets
A thrilling afternoon where organizers literally put the 'boo' in 'bounced light' and turn those scary shadows into bold, beautiful portraits. From Fear to Flash Express (30-Min Crash Course): Before hitting the haunted streets, the group will kick things off with a power-packed classroom session to demystify flash photography. You'll learn a fast, no-fuss process that'll help you conquer your fear and take control of your lighting-even in the darkest corners of the city. NYC Costume Photowalk: Once you've armed yourself with knowledge (and maybe some garlic), the group will head out into the urban night for a hands-on photowalk featuring a killer model, dramatic vibes, and endless street-style inspiration. Whether you're lighting under streetlamps or creating ghoulishly good shadows, every attendee will get their chance to direct, shoot, and shine. - Open to all levels, especially the flash-curious and the flash-fearful. - Bring your camera, but don't worry about the lighting equipment, as organizers will be bringing a set of strobes and triggers that will guide the group away from badly lit portraits. - Costumes encouraged (but not required)- because let's be real, everything's more fun with a cape.

Opening Reception | The Last Avant-Garde: Kotlyarov-Tolsty’s Vivrism in Mail Art and Letters -- Solo Avant-Garde Exhibition
A mail art exhibition. Mail art was a movement that embraced sending small-scale works through the postal service – was pioneered in the 1950s by the American artist Ray Johnson and was later embraced by artists associated with Fluxus and other experimental networks. Many of these rebellious artists were dissatisfied with other modernist movements that too readily allowed themselves to be absorbed into museums and the commercial art market. They sought a new form of presentation for their art that was noncollectible and noncommercial – using the postal system as a decentralized gallery and a means of communication and exchange. Mail art held particular appeal for international dissident communities, especially for Russian émigré artists in the 1980s. For them, it was a novel form of avant-garde art that truly returned them to their roots. They were animated by something akin to Kazimir Malevich’s conviction that art ought to be “an activity free from all economic, practical, and religious ideologies.”

Classical Music | Classical Indian Works for Santoor & Tabla (In Person AND Online!)
This concert, from Vinay Desai, will begin with a meditative melodic improvisation that takes the listeners to a place of deep stillness. Once the mood of the raag (melody) is set and the ambience built, the tabla player will join Desai in creating powerful rhythmic phrases that take the listeners on a melodic and rhythmic journey. The concert usually ends with a fast paced piece that enthralls the audience. Usually, this classical piece can last for about 45 minutes, followed by a shorter semi-classical devotional piece. Desai is known for his superlative melodic improvisations and sharp sense of rhythm. With a tabla player, they have an astonishing ability to embrace, dive into ,and reinterpret traditional music.

Poetry Reading | Acclaimed Voices in Ukrainian Poetry Read Their Work + English-Language Translations
Poet as Witness brings together acclaimed Ukrainian poets and the English translators of their works to share readings and discussion on how poetry bears witness to a nation at war. Yaryna Chornohuz and Lesyk Panasiuk — two of the most vital voices in contemporary Ukrainian poetry — will read from their work, followed by English-language translations by Amelia Glaser, Ilya Kaminsky, and Katie Farris, offering audiences a rare opportunity to hear these poems both in the original Ukrainian and in translation. This event will be moderated by Amelia Glaser. Chornohuz, a soldier and 2024 Shevchenko Prize laureate, writes from the front lines with a soldier’s sober eye, turning the strange and the ordinary alike into moments of startling clarity; Panasiuk‘s work moves fluidly between the intimate and the historical, tracing how war reshapes language itself. The evening will also honor the poetry of Maksym Kryvtsov, the poet and soldier killed in action in January 2024, whose work has come to stand as one of the defining testimonies of this war: poems written in the trenches that speak with extraordinary clarity about loss, brotherhood, and what it means to fight for one’s homeland. Translated by Larissa Babij, his work will be published in 2027 by Jantar Press.

Book Discussion | Social Psychiatrist Shares Her New Book on the World of K-Dramas
A reading and conversation with Mindy Thompson Fullilove to celebrate the recent release of The Tao of K-Drama: Wise Narratives for a Troubled World. Maura Spiegel will join as a conversant. About the book: K-dramas--South Korean television series that have captivated audiences worldwide--are often described as addictive, immersive, and emotionally generous. But in The Tao of K-Drama, Mindy Thompson Fullilove, MD, argues that they are something more consequential: a global site of collective meaning-making, where hundreds of millions of viewers encounter shared narratives of rupture, endurance, and repair. Far from mere entertainment, K-dramas offer a sophisticated vocabulary for living with--and through--trauma.

The Return of Martin Guerre is based on a case of imposture in 16th century France involving Martin Guerre, a French peasant and ex-soldier.

Director: Daniel Vigne Cast: Gérard Depardieu, Nathalie Baye Screening followed by discussion with Shanny Peer and Jeffrey Freedman. Please review the venue's access requirements.

Pages and fragments from a body of texts circulate through the room, and anyone present is invited to read aloud whenever the moment calls for it. A musician, serving as a kind of conductor for the piece, allows for pauses, silences, and swells, creating a dialogue with the audience’s voices as they rise and recede. The collective reading will be a composition built from listening as much as from the poetry itself.

Performance | Retrospective on Pioneering Ukrainian Modernist Playwright (with Live Readings, Conversation, & More)
At this event, stage directors Virlana Tkacz and Rory Pelsue will explore how Ukrainka might be reimagined for the contemporary stage—and why her fierce, psychologically charged plays offer such rich possibilities for directors, actors, and producers. In The Blue Rose, Cassandra, and more, playwright Lesia Ukrainka's dramas wrestle with gender, war, desire, power, and the dangerous cost of speaking the truth. Lesia Ukrainka (1871–1913) was a pioneering Ukrainian modernist, playwright, poet, and feminist intellectual. A contemporary of Henrik Ibsen and Anton Chekhov, she explored many of the same social and psychological tensions while offering a distinctly female perspective. Her complex heroines resist social expectations, challenge male authority, and insist on their intellectual, political, and personal freedom.

Workshop | Accessible, Grounding, & Restorative Yoga in the Park
Participants flow together and celebrate community through mindful movement with Yoga Sangraha. This is not a new style of yoga, but a gathering of timeless practices — accessible, grounding, and deeply restorative. Led with science and tradition at the heart, this class will guide you through a sequence of postures designed to balance, stabilize, and calm the body and mind. The word Sangraha means “a collection,” and this practice brings together postures and breathwork that activate the parasympathetic nervous system, helping you leave feeling focused, connected, and at ease. No prior experience needed — come as you are! Bring a bottled water. Organizers will provide the yoga mats. Weather permitting.
