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. Start times: 10:30 am, 12 pm, 1:30 pm

Discussion | Authors & Experts on Climate Change and Fixing the Food System (In Person AND Online!)


Michael Grunwald, author of the new book We Are Eating the Earth: The Race to Fix Our Food System and Save Our Climate, sits down with David Wallace-Wells of the New York Times to discuss his groundbreaking piece of reportage from the trenches of the next climate war: the fight to fix our food system. We Are Eating the Earth synopsis: Humanity has cleared a land mass the size of Asia plus Europe to grow food, and our food system generates a third of our carbon emissions. By 2050, we're going to need a lot more calories to fill nearly 10 billion bellies, but we can't feed the world without frying it if we keep tearing down an acre of rainforest every six seconds. We are eating the earth, an ingenious phrase coined by Michael Grunwald, and the greatest challenge facing our species will be to slow our relentless expansion of farmland into nature. Even if we quit fossil fuels, we'll keep hurtling towards climate chaos if we don't solve our food and land problems. In this rollicking, shocking narrative, Grunwald shows how the world, after decades of ignoring the climate problem at the center of our plates, has pivoted to making it worse, embracing solutions that sound sustainable but could make it even harder to grow more food with less land. But he also tells the stories of the dynamic scientists and entrepreneurs pursuing real solutions.

Author Reading | Author Discussion on Book about Immigration Detention in USA


This event is a conversation to celebrate the release of Immigration Detention Inc with the authors Nancy Hiemstra and Deirdre Conlon. The United States has the most extensive immigration detention system in the world, expanding from a capacity of less than 5,000 detainees per day in the 1980s to 52,000 by 2019. Nancy Hiemstra and Deirdre Conlon provide a damning exposé of the ways immigration detention generates income while those detained are starved, sickened, and exploited as a matter of routine detention operation. Drawing on over a decade of research and focusing on detention centers in New Jersey and New York, the authors map public-private financial relationships and trace how detention contracts for food, medical care, and in-facility stores are fought over to the penny. By dissecting the inner workings of immigration detention, they show a system governed by a capitalist logic that produces sickening and corrupting dependencies in communities across the US. Coming at a pivotal social and political moment, Immigration Detention Inc. makes the case for dismantling immigration detention regimes everywhere.

Play | Shakespeare's All's Well That Ends Well in the Park (Family Night)


"This is the way Shakespeare wrote his plays to be seen." -The Huffington Post Get swept up in one of Shakespeare's boldest romantic comedies with New York Classical Theatre! Written around 1604, All's Well That Ends Well is one of Shakespeare's boldest romantic comedies. When Helena--a brilliant, determined young woman--heals a king, she earns the right to choose her husband. But love isn't so simple, and she must use wit, courage, and a daring plan to win the life she desires. Full of humor, heart, and twists, this rarely performed gem is a story of love on Helena's terms. New York Classical Theatre's signature style, Panoramic Theatre, turns public spaces into the world of the play. Instead of sitting in one place, the audience moves with the actors from scene to scene, following the action as it unfolds. This immersive approach creates a dynamic, interactive experience where every performance is shaped by its surroundings. This performance is designed for kids and grown-ups alike! Come at 6:30 p.m. to make your own crown/tiara and scepter to help you feel like royalty while watching this bold, funny tale unfold.

Concert | Baroque, Folkloric, and Contemporary Music of the Americas: Songs, Dance, & Poetry


Conceived by performer, composer, and American Modern Opera Company (AMOC*) member Keir GoGwilt, Zarabanda Variations brings together a group of visionary composers, performers, and poets in a surprising and vibrant synthesis of Baroque, folkloric, and contemporary music of the Americas. The members of the ensemble work across genres including traditional Mariachi and Baroque music, improvisation collectives in Mexico City and New York, and contemporary composition, creating new songs and dances inspired by the eclecticism of the zarabanda: a dance with Spanish, pre-Columbian American, and African origin stories. Woven in with the music is the poetry of Edgar Garcia, whose work maps the emergence of the Baroque through scenes of colonial and contemporary translation, emergency, and migration. There are two ways to access this event: 1. General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up! 2. Fast Track opening the Monday before the event at noon.

Concert | Music in the Park: Canadian Double Headliner


This concert brings a pair of Canadian singer-songwriters with production chops to the park. Tamara Lindeman’s expansive folk project the Weather Station has been releasing quietly beautiful music for more than a decade. Their 2021 LP Ignorance—Lindeman’s contemplation on the climate crisis—represented an expansion of both their sound and their profile, fleshing out her carefully constructed melodies into full-throated expression supported by bass, keys, guitar, saxophone, flute, and two drummers. Their latest album Humanhood depicts the pain and pleasure of reconnecting with reality in the wake of dissociation. Katie Tupper rounds out the evening, embodying the boundary-pushing, genre-defying artistic work of artists in Canada. Her debut EP, Towards The End, received glowing acclaim from tastemakers like Zane Lowe and indie music press like Ones To Watch, Exclaim, Under The Radar, and FLOOD Magazine, and she is one of three participants selected to be part of the 2023 Allan Slaight JUNO Master Class.

Play | Shakespeare's All's Well That Ends Well in the Park


"This is the way Shakespeare wrote his plays to be seen." -The Huffington Post Get swept up in one of Shakespeare's boldest romantic comedies with New York Classical Theatre! Written around 1604, All's Well That Ends Well is one of Shakespeare's boldest romantic comedies. When Helena--a brilliant, determined young woman--heals a king, she earns the right to choose her husband. But love isn't so simple, and she must use wit, courage, and a daring plan to win the life she desires. Full of humor, heart, and twists, this rarely performed gem is a story of love on Helena's terms. New York Classical Theatre's signature style, Panoramic Theatre, turns public spaces into the world of the play. Instead of sitting in one place, the audience moves with the actors from scene to scene, following the action as it unfolds.

Performance | Tango-Opera Adaptation of the Myth of Orpheus and Eurydice


This performance is a new tango-infused version of Christoph Willibald Gluck's classic opera, Orfeo ed Euridice, set in a cabaret in Buenos Aires in the 1930s. In this version of Gluck's opera, the characters are transported to a carnival celebration in Buenos Aires in the 1930s and the score is orchestrated for a tango quartet. Gluck's re-orchestrated arias are the musical focus, while the recitatives, which traditionally provide dramatic context, are replaced by poetic texts written by great tango lyricists such as Jose Maria Contursi and Emilio Fresedo. The director set out to "recreate the myth of Orpheus, based on Gluck's opera, from a female perspective during carnival celebrations, which have traditionally been a space of social subversion where anyone can be a 'king' or 'queen' for a day. All inequalities are erased during the festivities, but at the end of the day each one returns to their reality, and those socially forbidden behaviors that surfaced under the masks reveal who we really are."

Concert | Baroque, Folkloric, and Contemporary Music of the Americas: Songs, Dance, & Poetry


Conceived by performer, composer, and American Modern Opera Company (AMOC*) member Keir GoGwilt, Zarabanda Variations brings together a group of visionary composers, performers, and poets in a surprising and vibrant synthesis of Baroque, folkloric, and contemporary music of the Americas. The members of the ensemble work across genres including traditional Mariachi and Baroque music, improvisation collectives in Mexico City and New York, and contemporary composition, creating new songs and dances inspired by the eclecticism of the zarabanda: a dance with Spanish, pre-Columbian American, and African origin stories. Woven in with the music is the poetry of Edgar Garcia, whose work maps the emergence of the Baroque through scenes of colonial and contemporary translation, emergency, and migration. There are two ways to access this event: 1. General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up! 2. Fast Track opening the Monday before the event at noon.

Play | Shakespeare's All's Well That Ends Well in the Park


"This is the way Shakespeare wrote his plays to be seen." -The Huffington Post Get swept up in one of Shakespeare's boldest romantic comedies with New York Classical Theatre! Written around 1604, All's Well That Ends Well is one of Shakespeare's boldest romantic comedies. When Helena--a brilliant, determined young woman--heals a king, she earns the right to choose her husband. But love isn't so simple, and she must use wit, courage, and a daring plan to win the life she desires. Full of humor, heart, and twists, this rarely performed gem is a story of love on Helena's terms. New York Classical Theatre's signature style, Panoramic Theatre, turns public spaces into the world of the play. Instead of sitting in one place, the audience moves with the actors from scene to scene, following the action as it unfolds. This immersive approach creates a dynamic, interactive experience where every performance is shaped by its surroundings.

Concert | Music in the Park: Spanish-Language Triple Headliner


THis concert brings a pair of Spanish-language music acts that offer a taste of the best in contemporary Latin music to the park. Morat is a Latin GRAMMY-nominated Colombian band from Bogotá; they write nostalgic love songs that ache like classic boleros but draw from R&B, country, and power ballads. Since their 2015 breakout single that hit no. 1 in Spain (“Mi Nuevo Vicio”), they’ve cut four studio albums and collaborated with the likes of Antonio Carmona, Sebastián Yatra, and many others. Planta Industrial is a Bronx-born Dominican duo that consists of just two voices and a drum machine, yet brings enough energy to tear down walls. Their four-on-the-floor post-industrial dance punk puts a hard modern edge on retro sounds; rabble-rousing tracks like “OI” prove they were born to instigate. Argentine singer and influencer Yami Safdie brings her sweet Latin pop sound; her previous collab with Lasso on the song “En otra vida” gained her fans across the continent. Doors open at 6:00 pm.

Author Reading | Nonfiction Authors Discuss Southeast Asian Political landscape and Culture


This event is a conversation with Benjamin Tausig, author of Bangkok after Dark: Maurice Rocco, Transnational Nightlife, and the Making of Cold War Intimacies, and Rianne Subijanto, author of Communication against Capital: Red Enlightenment at the Dawn of Indonesia. About Bangkok after Dark:  From the 1930s to the 1950s, jazz pianist Maurice Rocco was a mainstay in Hollywood and American nightlife scenes. As rock and roll surpassed jazz as America’s most popular music in the 1950s, the queer Black pianist’s fortunes faded and he was forced to go abroad for new opportunities. In 1964 Rocco settled in Bangkok, where he thrived and enjoyed a relatively privileged life until he was murdered by two young male sex workers in 1976. In Bangkok after Dark, Benjamin Tausig uses Rocco’s intriguing story to trace the history of transnational nightlife encounters between Thais and Americans during the long American war in Vietnam. Tausig shows how these encounters, which included musical collaborations, romantic and sexual relationships, and new labor, identity, and geopolitical configurations, remade Thailand in crucial and enduring ways. Tausig challenges conventional understandings of the global Cold War on individual and transnational scales. About Communication against Capital: Communication against Capital explores the revolutionary communication strategies of the pergerakan merah, the anticolonial "red movement" in 1920s Indonesia. Rianne Subijanto tells the story of ordinary lower-class women and children and people of diverse races and ethnicities who waged their battles against Dutch colonialism within multiple arenas of communication, including political associations, assemblies, printed matter, schools, and shipping lines. In this process, communist ideas merged with ideals drawn from the Enlightenment to shape the emancipatory spirit of Indonesians.

Film | Bringing Up Baby (1938): Screwball Comedy with Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant


While trying to secure a $1 million donation for his museum, a befuddled paleontologist is pursued by a flighty and often irritating heiress and her pet leopard, Baby. Director: Howard Hawks Cast: Katharine Hepburn, Cary Grant, Charles Ruggles, Barry Fitzgerald, May Robson Katharine Hepburn was known for her headstrong independence, spirited personality, and outspokenness, cultivating a screen persona that matched this public image, and regularly playing strong-willed, sophisticated women. She worked in a varied range of genres, from screwball comedy to literary drama, which earned her various accolades, including four Academy Awards for Best Actress--a record for any performer.Her early years in film brought her international fame. She found a niche playing mature, independent, and sometimes unmarried women such as in The African Queen (1951), a persona the public embraced. Hepburn famously shunned the Hollywood publicity machine, and refused to conform to societal expectations of women. She was outspoken, assertive, athletic, and wore pants before it was fashionable. With her unconventional lifestyle and the independent characters she brought to the screen, Hepburn came to epitomize the "modern woman" in 20th-century America and influenced changing popular perceptions of women. In 1999, she was named the greatest female star of classic Hollywood cinema by the American Film Institute. A well-known figure of Classic Hollywood, Cary Grant was nominated twice for the Academy Award, received an Academy Honorary Award, and received the Kennedy Center Honor. In 1999, Grant was named the second greatest male star of the Golden Age of Hollywood by the American Film Institute.

Dance Performance | American Mordern Opera Company: Dance/Music Piece on the Messy Reality of Friendships


This event is a dance-music piece led by dancer/choreographer Or Schraiber and cellist Coleman Itzkoff (both with the American Modern Opera Company) that excavates the complexity of ancient relationships: the tortured conception of friendship as a messy amalgam of love, hatred, insecurity, and neediness. Each performer attempts to share their tales, the scarring curiosity of the unknown, and the haunting sensations that come as a consequence of their actions. This performance is a part of the Run AMOC* Festival at Lincoln Center, celebrating the American Modern Opera Company's audacious creativity and intimate approach to storytelling. Seating is first-come first-served. Just show up!

A group of Korean dancers arrives in New York, and they begin dancing freely in the streets, each expressing their unique personality through movement. While enjoying the moment together, one dancer’s look draws playful teasing from the group. As the others go off to explore the city, that dancer follows a captivating tune into a bar, where a heartfelt encounter unfolds.

The night unfolds in waves—security guards take over the stage with bold moves, followed by dazzling flapper dancers. As the lights dim, mysterious late-night guests emerge for a gripping and intense group performance, filling the stage with suspense and raw energy. Then, the tension fades as cleaners dance in the early light of dawn, bringing brightness and calm. A mambo celebration lifts the mood, eventually giving way to an electrifying Lindy Hop group number. In the finale, all dancers come together to celebrate the vibrant meeting of swing and K-culture.

Book Discussion | Author Talks about Her New Book on Art Activism: The War of Art


What do artists' protests reveal about the possibilities for protest in our democracy? Lauren O'Neill-Butler's The War of Art invites us to learn, imagine, and mobilize, which attendees do together at this talk joined by O'Neill-Butler and fellow writers E.C. Feiss and Ciaran Finlayson. 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 of 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. Lauren O'Neill-Butler charts the post-war development of artists' protest and connects these struggles to a long tradition of feminism and civil rights activism. The book offers portraits of the key individuals and groups of artists who have campaigned for solidarity, housing, LGBTQ+, HIV/AIDS awareness, and against Indigenous injustice and the exclusion of women in the art world. Based upon in-depth oral histories with the key figures in these movements, and illustrated throughout, The War of Art is an essential corrective to the idea that art history excludes politics. Lauren O'Neill-Butler is a New York-based writer and editor. Her books include The War of Art: A History of Artists' Protest in America and Let's Have a Talk: Conversations with Women on Art and Culture. A former cofounder of the nonprofit magazine November and Senior Editor of Artforum, she has written for Aperture, Art Journal, Bookforum, and The New York Times, among many others.

Dancing | Afro-Brazilian Samba Dance Grooves


The Bahia-born and North Carolina-based vocalist and instrumentalist Caique Vidal joins us with his band Batuque for a concert of Afro-Brazilian samba. "Batuque" (pronounced ba-TOO-kee) means "to drum" and that imperative is delivered with an explosive performance that rocks the crowd! A community organizer for the Brazilian diaspora, Vidal began his journey on the streets of Salvador da Bahia, known as "the Black Rome of the Americas". Playing with Olodum, the founding family of samba-reggae, Vidal has presented the genre's infectious rhythms and message of empowerment across Brazil, Europe, and the United States. A studied rhythmic and choral arranger, Caique Vidal has shared the stage with musical ambassadors including Susana Baca, Carlinhos Brown, and Gilberto Gil. His most recent album, 2023's Save My Heart, unites the sounds and spirit of reggae, salsa, pop, rock, samba and bossa nova into a riveting dance groove. There are two ways to access this event: 1. General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up! 2. Fast Track opening the Monday before the event at noon.

Concert | Radical Brazilian Pop Band Os Mutantes: Psychedelic, Tropicália, and Protest Music


Though initially only rarely heard outside of Brazil, Os Mutantes is currently acknowledged as among the most dynamic, original, radical, and influential bands of their era. These brash musical experimentalists engaged distortion, feedback, sampling techniques and a prescient selection of studio tricks to create a lighthearted, playful, yet still extreme Brazilian pop. An integral part of the psychedelic, Tropicália and protest movements, Os Mutantes combined unbridled guitars, traditional rhythms, an optimistic vision of the future, and an advanced melodic sensibility. Now, nearly 60 years removed from their founding, Os Mutantes’s approach to sonic collage and a wry tendency toward cultural irony ushered in a near-universal modern music aesthetic.  There are two ways to access this event: 1. General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up! 2. Fast Track opening the Monday before the event at noon.

Concert | Celebration of Afro-Brazilian Choro Music


Meet up with the New York-based Brazilian choro and samba ensemble Regional Samaúma for a celebration of the sounds of Brazil through the potent group music-making gathering known as a Roda de Choro! Choro references a rich repertoire that dates back nearly two centuries and represents the fusion of Afro-Brazilian traditions with classical sonorities and dance forms from European culture. Initially developed in the post-slavery Rio de Janeiro in the late 1800s, choro remains a fundamental driving force for the contemporary expression of Brazilian culture. For this event, Regional Samaúma presents a two-part Roda de Choro, beginning with a historical journey across 150 years of choro styles, incorporating maxixe, Brazilian polka and tango, samba, lundu, and baião. In the second part, they invite the audience to participate in a semi-improvisational performance. Bring your own instrument and join in the fun with a few choro tunes! 5:00–6:00 pm: Presentation of choro music by Regional Samaúma 6:00–6:30 pm: Participatory Roda de Choro Seating is first-come first-served.

Born in the countryside of Sao Paulo, the bold and groundbreaking superstar, singer-songwriter Liniker is proving that you don't have to choose between changing the world or charting hits. Honored as an "Immortal" by the Brazilian Academy of Culture, cast in a star role in the Amazon Prime Video series Manhas de Setembro, and winner of the Latin GRAMMY for Best Portuguese Language Popular Music Album (making her the first transgender artist to ever win a Latin GRAMMY), Liniker's resume speaks for itself. Liniker originally made her mark on the Brazilian music scene as the bandleader of Liniker e os Caramelows, singing a fusion of samba, pop, soul, jazz, dub reggae, R&B and cabaret torch songs. Her sophomore solo LP, 2024's CAJU, was a major winner at the 2024 Multishow Awards, deemed by the culture journal escutai to be "diverse, dynamic, plural, orchestral, psychedelic... a mix of the many parts of the grand whole that is Liniker." There are three ways to access this event: 1. General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up! 2. Fast Track opening the Monday before the event at noon. 3. The performance will be streamed live for free on the linked web page.

Book Club | Romance Novel Discussion in the Park: Love, Camera, Action


It's enemies to lovers - and everything in-between - as it's time to revel in romance in July. Love, Camera, Action synopsis: "Up-and-coming TV director Cali Daniels knows sex. Well, okay, she knows how to shoot sex scenes, and she’s been hired to direct a highly anticipated steamy episode of the popular series The Demon. This job is her chance at a big-time career in the film and television industry—if only the director of photography—effortlessly sexy Jory Blair—would stop shutting her ideas down at every turn. Now this creative newbie, who she can’t get out of his mind, wants to change the look of his show. Even worse, the friction between them is sparking into blistering chemistry. As collaborating takes on a whole new meaning, and the show’s producer not-so-subtly suggests that Jory sabotage Cali in order to achieve his own goals, they’ll have to decide if chasing their dream jobs is worth losing the dream of a future together." Sign up in advance and pick up your free book, then return to discuss with like-minded fans and hosts.

Book Club | Discuss Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt


Book Synopsis: After Tova Sullivan's husband died, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium, mopping floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope, which she's been doing since her eighteen-year-old son, Erik, mysteriously vanished on a boat in Puget Sound over thirty years ago. Tova becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine but wouldn't dream of lifting one of his eight arms for his human captors--until he forms a remarkable friendship with Tova. Ever the detective, Marcellus deduces what happened the night Tova's son disappeared. And now Marcellus must use every trick his old invertebrate body can muster to unearth the truth for her before it's too late. Shelby Van Pelt's debut novel is a gentle reminder that sometimes taking a hard look at the past can help uncover a future that once felt impossible.

Award-winning writer and multidisciplinary artist Eloghosa Osunde discusses their new novel Necessary Fiction. What makes a family? How is it defined and by whom? Is freedom for everyone? In Necessary Fiction, Eloghosa Osunde poses these provocative questions and many more while exploring the paths and dreams, hopes and fears of more than two dozen characters who are staking out lives for themselves in contemporary Nigeria.

Dancing | Learn To Mambo with Live Music


In this social dance night, Sekou McMiller will teach how to mambo, along with the sounds of live musicians igniting the dance floor. From 1945 to 1966, The Palladium Ballroom was the home for the mambo, a social, partner dance. The Palladium is also recognized as the first integrated dance space in Midtown, and it was known to the clubgoers as a place of family, a place of love, and a place of dance. Dance artist and historian Sekou McMiller spent time in a residency at the Jerome Robbins Dance Division at the Library for the Performing Arts, working with, speaking to, and dancing with elders from the mambo community that spent their youth at the Palladium. Their stories and the dance moves they shared with McMiller were filmed and are now part of the Division’s archive. The spirit of mambo lives on through their legacy—one which everyone can still enjoy!  There are two ways to access this event: 1. General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up! 2. Fast Track opening the Monday before the event at noon.

Concert | Music in the Park: Eclectic Artists with Giant Talents


Jazz royalty and disco pioneer, Asha Puthli returns to the stage after a 19 year hiatus. Known for her award-winning vocals on Ornette Coleman’s “Science Fiction” album, the music pioneer has released twelve albums, was a favorite at Studio 54 and placed by Andy Warhol in his time capsule. Her cult classic “Space Talk” was a mainstay at the Paradise Garage and The Loft, sampled by A-list hip-hop artists and launched into space!  For years Cymande was a flame that burned quick but bright; the group, which drew its membership from several Caribbean nations, mixed funk, soul, reggae, rock, calypso, and jazz with African rhythms into a sound they dubbed “nyah-rock.” After releasing three albums between 1971-1974, they disappeared until reforming to tour in the 2010s. They’ll be performing their classics and their brand-new 2025 album Renascence. Zacchae’us Paul is a multi-instrumentalist, composer, and producer with a fresh and irreverent take on Black music and the African diaspora, stretching and bending jazz around Atlanta hip-hop, gospel sounds and philosophies, and the Caribbean rhythms he picked up studying in Puerto Rico. Spinning tunes between sets is DJ K.Tea, an NYC-based DJ from St. Louis and Chicago who crafts sonic journeys that inspire freedom, dance, and discovery within house music.  Doors open at 5:00 pm.

Musical | Deaf Broadway Presents Waitress with ASL


Following their productions of RENT and Once on This Island, Deaf Broadway brings a live staging of the Broadway smash-hit Waitress by Sara Bareilles and Jessie Nelson—offering a more equitable shared evening for hearing and Deaf audiences alike, showcasing a full Deaf Broadway cast performing the music through ASL with direction by Sandra Mae Frank. In just five short years, Deaf Broadway has become synonymous with authentically Deaf musical theater. The organization was founded during the 2020 pandemic in response to artistic director Garrett Zuercher's experience with the state of Deaf access to performances of lyrically complex musicals, which too often water down the nuance of the original work’s language and intentions. Taking up the gauntlet, he and his team began producing American Sign Language interfaces of popular musicals. Eventually, the company began staging the prerecorded audio performance of the musical, presented live by a trained Deaf cast acting their individual parts in ASL.  There are two ways to access this event: 1. General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up! 2. Fast Track opening the Monday before the event at noon.

Tour | Dance Theater Exhibition Tour


Take a tour of Room to Move: Dance Theater Workshop and Alternative Histories of Downtown Dance, an exhibition about 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. We also have them to thank for the Bessie Awards, which recognize outstanding and groundbreaking creative work by independent dance artists in New York City. This tour requires no registration, and is first come, first served.

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.

In 2001, he collaborated with a number of US musicians on his album Fight to Win, including Common, Mos Def, and Jaguar Wright; in 2021, he released a two-album project with his son Made Kuti called Legacy+.

Also performing is dead prez, the infamous hip-hop duo with an instantly recognizable hit (“Hip-Hop,” famously used as the bed track on Chappelle’s Show) and a legacy of calling out inequality and injustice throughout their career. Across three studio albums and a handful of mixtapes, they’ve championed militant social justice, self-determination, Pan-Africanism, and opposing corporate media. Cape Verdean singer and songwriter Elida Almeida, known for her viral single and album Nta Konsigui, will round out the evening. DJing between sets will be Rich Medina, the DJ, producer, spoken-word poet, archivist, and journalist who claims both the Rock Steady Crew and the Universal Zulu Nation and is a part of the DJ collective The Originals; in 2001 he created the “JUMP N FUNK”, North America’s original Afrobeat party series celebrating Fela Kuti and the cultural legacy of Afrobeat music. Maryam Bukar Hassan, also known as Alhanislam, is a Nigerian poet, human rights activist, and Pan-Africanist renowned for her impassioned advocacy on social issues. Recognized as one of the 100 Most Reputable Africans for 2025 and as the UN’s next Global Advocate for Peace, Alhanislam continues to bridge activism with the power of spoken word, using her voice to inspire change on a global scale.

Dance Performance | Historic Dance Show Recreated with Dancers & Visual Arts


The Jerome Robbins Dance Division at the Library for the Performing Arts preserves Elaine Summers' archive. In honor of the Library's 60th anniversary, organizers celebrate Summers during her centennial birth year with a recreation of her 2007 performance, Hidden Forest.

Hidden Forest is inspired by Dante's quote--"in the midst of the journey of life I came upon a dark forest, where the path was lost." Dancer, choreographer, and intermedia artist Elaine Summers was a major pioneer exploring the meeting of dance and film, melding the two into a seamless whole which she referred to as "intermedia." This recreation of Hidden Forest is directed by Frances Becker and assisted by the Artistic Estate of Elaine Summers. Seating is first-come first-served. Just show up!

Tour | Dance Theater Exhibition Tour


Take a tour of Room to Move: Dance Theater Workshop and Alternative Histories of Downtown Dance, an exhibition about 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. We also have them to thank for the Bessie Awards, which recognize outstanding and groundbreaking creative work by independent dance artists in New York City. This tour requires no registration, and is first come, first served.

A Victorian surgeon rescues a heavily disfigured man who is mistreated as a side-show freak. Behind his façade, there is revealed a person of kindness, intelligence and sophistication. Director: David Lynch Cast: Anthony Hopkins, John Hurt, Anne Bancroft, Freddie Jones, John Gielgud David Lynch was an American filmmaker, visual artist, musician, and actor. Considered one of the most important filmmakers of his era, Lynch was often called a "visionary" and was acclaimed for films often distinguished by their surrealist and experimental qualities. In a career spanning more than five decades, he received numerous accolades, including an Honorary Academy Award in 2019. The adjective Lynchian came into use to describe works or situations reminiscent of his art, with the Oxford English Dictionary noting his penchant for "juxtaposing surreal or sinister elements with mundane, everyday environments, and for using compelling visual images to emphasize a dreamlike quality of mystery or menace."
