Opening Reception | Welcome to Lenapehoking: An Inaugural Event
The New York City neighborhood we call the East Village is part of Lenapehoking, the homeland of the first inhabitants the Lenape. Manhahtaan (the Lenape word for Manhattan) has always buzzed with economic and cultural exchange, breeding rich and diverse traditions of art, performance, and trade. To celebrate this ongoing legacy, pay respect to the original caretakers of this land, and recognize the considerable influence Native American artists have had on American performance and art, the venue is partnering with the Lenape Center—the local organization dedicated to the promotion of Lenape language and culture—for the inauguration of its newly renovated spaces. The opening celebration, led by Indigenous artists and leaders, is the beginning of an ongoing relationship between the local arts community and Lenape people on Lenapehoking.

Author Reading | Kyla Schuller reads from her book The Biopolitics of Feeling: Race, Sex and Science in the Nineteenth Century
The Biopolitics of Feeling is a landmark new work in feminist and queer studies. It unearths how sentimentalism, often dismissed as a mode of feminized and excessive emotion, actually worked to establish modern power’s hierarchies of race and sex. The book exposes how ideas about the sensory and affective capacities of the body lie at the heart of modern ideas of race and sex difference.

Jazz | The Chip Shelton PeaceTime Ensemble
With incredible talent and perseverance, Chip Shelton has earned an undisputed reputation as one of the most renowned flutists in the world of jazz. The flute, with its high-pitched tone, didn’t start out as a swinging jazz instrument until Frank Wess first popularized it as a member of Count Basie’s Big Band. He set the standard for such noted flutists as Yusef Lateef, Herbie Mann, Charles Lloyd, and Hubert Laws that further propelled the instrument into the jazz spotlight.
