Discussion | Elizabeth Catlett and the Ralph Ellison Memorial: Public Art in Context
John T. Reddick of the Ralph Ellison Memorial Committee teaches about Elizabeth Catlett’s only public work, located in Riverside Park. The Brooklyn Museum is currently exhibiting the first major retrospective of Elizabeth Catlett’s career. Catlett's only public commissioned work sought to honor author Ralph Ellison in Riverside Park near where he and his wife Fanny lived. The efforts of Harlem residents in partnership with the Riverside Park Conservancy resulted in the funding for the Ralph Ellison Memorial and the selection of Catlett's sculpture "Invisible Man." Reddick and panelists host an informative discussion of the Ellison Memorial in the context of Catlett's career, engagement with the Harlem community, and identity as an artist. Refreshments will be provided in the Library afterwards. Panelists include: Dalila Scruggs, Catlett scholar (the Augusta Savage Curator of African American Art, the Smithsonian American Art Museum) Ken Smith (the Ellison memorial project's landscape architect) Francisco Mora, Jr. (son of Elizabeth Catlett)

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 be serving 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 first with Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia in 1942.

Talk | Tuscans: Some Intriguing Questions About This Singular Ornamental Type (online)
Tuscan letterforms can be subtle or extravagant, sumptuous or delicate, but in an inexplicable way this very singular genre populates streets and typographic catalogs of all times. A product of decorative ingenuity, Tuscan vernaculars dress the street signs of Mexico as much as the stained glass windows of Paris, the "porteno" filleting of Buenos Aires signs or the hulls of fishing boats in the waters of the Amazon. But where do Tuscan letters come from? Are they just another expressive addition to the decorative sections in type founders and printers' catalogs? Is it possible that they were born from a mischievous interpretation of Roman inscriptions engraved in stone? These and other questions will be raised -- not necessarily answered -- as part of this talk by typeface expert Alejandro Lo Celso

Discussion | Getting Past “Yes:” Disentangling the Relationship Between Housing Supply and Affordability (online)
The Adams Administration is trying to change the city's zoning rules in an ostensible effort to address the city's affordable housing crisis. Its proposal, "City of Yes for Housing Opportunity," currently under public review, constitutes a far-ranging upzoning aimed at stimulating the construction of market rate housing. Critics of the plan point out that post-upzoning development tends to increase housing costs. The City, however, insists that academic research concludes the opposite and that the example of cities like Austin and Minneapolis support the fundamental logic of the City of Yes approach. This panel, hosted by Village Preservation Special Projects Director Juan Rivero and consisting of planning and housing scholars with expertise in the residential markets of Austin, Minneapolis, and New York City, will consider the City's contention, in view of empirical evidence about the relation between market rate housing supply and housing costs.

Discussion | Peace of Art: A Dynamic Hip-Hop Event
This event unites emerging creatives from Berlin, NYC, and Paris, providing a unique platform for 40 young artists that aims to foster cultural, artistic and political exchange. Hip-hop culture forms the heartbeat of this connection—a shared space where they exchange ideas, gain fresh perspectives, and reflect on their lives in new ways. As ambassadors for their respective cities, the participants will build a network over the span of two years, consisting of digital meetups as well as in person trips to each city – starting with 10 Days in New York in phase one and 10 Days in Berlin and Paris in phase two. Apart from addressing current social and political issues that they care about, they will also work on artistically processing their ideas and thoughts together, bringing those on a stage to a large audience through music, photography, poetry and more. Politicians from the three different cities will act as patrons of the project, giving the participants an insight to political processes and the opportunity to communicate their viewpoints to decision makers directly.

Book Discussion | Sister Snake by Amanda Lee Koe
Sisterhood is difficult for Su and Emerald. Su leads a sheltered, moneyed life as the picture-perfect wife of a conservative politician in Singapore. Emerald is a nihilistic sugar baby in New York, living from whim to whim and using her charms to make ends meet. But they share a secret: once, they were snakes, basking under a full moon in Tang dynasty China. A thousand years later, their mysterious history is the only thing still binding them together. When Emerald experiences a violent encounter in Central Park and Su boards the next flight to New York, the two reach a tenuous reconciliation for the first time in decades. Su convinces Emerald to move to Singapore so she can keep an eye on her—but she soon begins to worry that Emerald’s irrepressible behavior will out them both, in a sparkling, affluent city where everything runs like clockwork and any deviation from the norm is automatically suspect. Sister Snake explores chosen family, queerness, passing, and the struggle against conformity. Reimagining the Chinese folktale “The Legend of the White Snake,” this is a novel about being seen for who you are—and, ultimately, how to live free. At this event, Amanda Lee Koe will discuss her new book.

At a Cape Cod beach house, and later at a luxury Catskills bungalow, Keru, Nate, and their giant sheepdog navigate visits from in-laws and unexpected guests, all while wondering if they have what it takes to answer the big questions: How do you cope when your spouse and your family of origin clash? How many people (and dogs) make a family? And when the pack starts to disintegrate, what can you do to shepherd everyone back together? With author Weike Wang

Talk | On the Edge of Water and Change: John T. Krawchuk’s Photography of the West Village Waterfront in the Early 1990s (online)
An evening with John T. Krawchuk examining the West Village waterfront on the brink of radical change and redevelopment in the early 1990s. As part of his 1995 Columbia University graduate thesis in Historic Preservation, Krawchuk photodocumented the Meatpacking District, Far West Village, and Hudson River. This project took place at a pivotal time in the neighborhood’s history. The contemporary removal of disused sections of the High Line south of Gansevoort Street and the conversion of the abandoned Hudson River piers and waterfront to parkland coincided with and helped spur dramatic gentrification and development in the area, which had been a gritty backwater for decades. Krawchuk will be joined in conversation with Village Preservation’s Executive Director Andrew Berman and Director of Preservation and Research Dena Tasse-Winter to help further highlight life in this unique part of our neighborhood as it was about to undergo an irrevocable change.

Screening | Joseph Brodsky: Epitaph for a Centaur, Six Years Later: Short Film and Discussion
A panel discussion and screening of a short film examining the life of Joseph Brodsky, the celebrated Russian-Jewish American writer and Nobel Laureate. Through analyses of two of Brodsky's evocative poems, "Epitaph for a Centaur" and "Six Years Later," this 25-minute film encapsulates Brodsky's exploration of identity, belonging, and the passage of time. The film examines the paradoxical relationship between the U.S. and Russia during the Cold War, intricately portrayed through the symbolic figure of the centaur--a representation of Brodsky's own multi-faceted existence as Russian, American, and Jewish. By delving into the intricate language of Brodsky's poetry, this short film explores Brodsky's Jewish identity, his legacy, and the political undertones of his writing.

Classical Music | Klezmer Music Concert
Klezmer is an instrumental musical tradition of the Ashkenazi Jews of Central and Eastern Europe. The tradition includes dance tunes, ritual melodies, and virtuosic improvisations played for listening. Klezmer also incorporates elements of many other musical genres including Ottoman (especially Greek and Romanian) music, Baroque music, German and Slavic folk dances, and religious Jewish music. When the musical tradition was popularized in the United States in the 1910s and 1920s, it lost some of its traditional ritual elements and adopted elements of American big band and popular music. After the destruction of Jewish life in Eastern Europe during the Holocaust, and a general fall in the popularity of klezmer music in the United States, the music began to be popularized again in the late 1970s in the "Klezmer Revival." During the 1980s and onwards, musicians experimented with traditional and experimental forms of the genre, releasing fusion albums combining the genre with jazz, punk, and other styles.

Shot entirely in a virtual environment, Knit’s Island is a contemplative documentary that attempts to discover what is “real” in this virtual existence. Under the guise of avatars, a film crew enters a space and makes contact with the "locals." This mysterious, post-apocalyptic rural landscape is revealed as a meeting place, where stories, ideas, and friendships are shared. Slowly the players drop their masks to reveal their realities, their daily lives, their relationships of love and friendship. Mixing their memories of the game with the stories of their real lives, a group will take viewers on a walk on the borders of the Internet. By going to the edge of the game, in search of the limits of this place, the film explores the first steps of the virtualization of our lives, and questions the future of our world.

Book Discussion | It Takes Two to Torah: An Orthodox Rabbi and Reform Journalist Discuss and Debate Their Way Through the Five Books of Moses (online)
Abigail Pogrebin and Rabbi Dov Linzer's book is a Torah conversation-starter for families on Shabbat, for religious school instructors with students of all ages, for individuals who have never found a way to read the entire Torah in bite-size, relatable nuggets, and for young clergy looking for some sermon ideas if they’re stuck! Most of all, it is a snapshot of what Torah study is meant to be: a real-time, candid, instructive, challenging exchange of responses to ancient text.For the first time, in a single volume, readers can take a tour of the entire Torah through the medium of one challenging, instructive, irreverent, animated conversation.

Opening Reception | Design & Document: The Folly Cove Designers
Between 1938 and 1969, a group of friends and neighbors, under the direction of renowned children’s book illustrator Virginia Lee Burton, created designs and linoleum block prints inspired by the flora, fauna, seascape, and vibrant immigrant community of Cape Ann, Massachusetts. This body of work, almost all handprinted on textiles, reveals the idealism of the American dream without any cynicism—a capsule of our culture that may be viewed as nostalgic but more importantly, as a group effort that reveals the beauty and possibilities of collaboration. Today, the work of the Folly Cove Designers can be seen as an example of American Regionalism at its finest and a testament that some of the most enduring artworks can be born of hard work and humble origins.

Book Club | Graphic Novel Book Club: Ducks Two Years in the Oil Sands by Kate Beaton
Before there was Kate Beaton, New York Times bestselling cartoonist of Hark! A Vagrant, there was Katie Beaton of the Cape Breton Beaton, specifically Mabou, a tight-knit seaside community where the lobster is as abundant as beaches, fiddles, and Gaelic folk songs. With the singular goal of paying off her student loans, Katie heads out west to take advantage of Alberta's oil rush—part of the long tradition of East Coasters who seek gainful employment elsewhere when they can't find it in the homeland they love so much. Katie encounters the harsh reality of life in the oil sands, where trauma is an everyday occurrence yet is never discussed. Beaton's natural cartooning prowess is on full display as she draws colossal machinery and mammoth vehicles set against a sublime Albertan backdrop of wildlife, northern lights, and boreal forest. Her first full length graphic narrative, Ducks: Two Years in the Oil Sands is an untold story of Canada: a country that prides itself on its egalitarian ethos and natural beauty while simultaneously exploiting both the riches of its land and the humanity of its people.

Book Discussion | Ignorance and Bliss: On Wanting Not to Know
A dazzling exploration of our wish to remain innocent and ignorant—and its consequences. Aristotle claimed that “all human beings want to know.” Our own experience proves that all human beings also want not to know. Today, centuries after the Enlightenment, mesmerized crowds still follow preposterous prophets, irrational rumors trigger fanatical acts, and magical thinking crowds out common sense and expertise. Why is this? Where does this will to ignorance come from, and how does it continue to shape our lives? Acclaimed essayist and historian of ideas Mark Lilla offers an absorbing psychological diagnosis of the human will not to know.

Screening | Silent Clowns Film Showcase: The Strong Man (1926)
After years in vaudeville, Harry Langdon made his movie debut in 1924, and his career blazed brightly until 1928. Forgotten for many years, today's he's considered one of the era's greatest and most original film clowns. The Strong Man (1926) was the second for his own production company, and is his best-known and most successful starring comedy. It's also the first feature for director Frank Capra, and is the best example of their close collaboration, featuring some of Langdon's most memorable and celebrated comedy set pieces. Although his top stardom ended in 1928, Harry continued to entertain audiences until 1945. The Silent Clowns Film Series is New York's longest-running regularly scheduled silent film showcase. The programming reaches the serious film buff by including rarely-screened titles and rare prints, yet it also introduces kids and new audiences to the classics of the silent screen. Screenings feature live piano accompaniment by MoMA's Ben Model, with an introduction and Q&A by film historians Model and Steve Massa. Registration required.

Film | Mr. Skeffington (1944) with Bette Davis
A woman who only wants a picture-perfect life is close to losing everything. Fanny Trellis has her choice of men, and she picks wealthy Job Skeffington. She plans to get married to preserve her family's reputation, but everything goes awry when her brother Trippy is killed in World War I. For Fanny and Job, the following years bring only loss, longing, and self-discovery. Director: Vincent Sherman Cast: Bette Davis, Claude Rains Bette Davis was an American actress of film, television, and theater. Regarded as one of the greatest actresses in Hollywood history, she was known for her performances in a range of film genres, from contemporary crime melodramas to historical and period films and occasional comedies, although her greatest successes were her roles in romantic dramas. She won the Academy Award for Best Actress twice, was the first person to accrue ten Academy Award nominations (and one write-in) for acting, and was the first woman to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Film Institute. In 1999, Davis was placed second on the American Film Institute's list of the greatest female stars of classic Hollywood cinema.

In her new biography, The Elements of Marie Curie, Dava Sobel focuses not just on Curie’s legendary genius, but on the 45 women who worked in her lab—from Marguerite Perey, who discovered the element francium, to Curie’s elder daughter, Irene, winner of the 1935 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Sobel chronicles Curie’s remarkable life of discovery alongside the lives of the women who followed down the trail she blazed.

Lecture | “White Slavery” and the Marriage Plot: Ivan Turgenev’s Fathers and Children in the Global Emancipation Era (online)
In the mid-1800s, after Great Britain legally ended the slave trade and abolition was under debate in the United States, foreign commentators accused the Russian Empire of perpetuating “white slavery.” Reckoning on a contradiction of terms, “white slavery” referenced various bonded labor practices, including serfdom, but particularly decried the sexual bondage of white women. Perhaps the most famous artifact of this discourse was Hiram Powers’s 1849 The Greek Slave, a white marble sculpture of a woman in chains with copies around the world—including at a Russian prince’s estate and at the Russian section of the 1851 Great Exhibition in London’s Crystal Palace. In this talk, Yale University's Fiona Bell suggests that the “white slavery” canon includes not just Western objects about Russia, but also Russian cultural objects, looking specifically at Ivan Turgenev’s 1862 novel Fathers and Children as an example of how Russian authors depicted the class violence of serfdom using the western lexicon developed around racialized chattel slavery.

Book Club | Poetry Discussion: Selected Poems of Theodore Roethke
The poems discussed will be from the sections "The Waking, Words for the Wind," and "The Far Field." Copies of the reading can be downloaded at the link below. Please bring your printed copy to the discussion; participants will be reading aloud and doing close analysis of the poems. Theodore Roethke is considered one of the most important American poets of the 20th century. His work is characterized by its exploration of the natural world, its intense emotionality, and its formal inventiveness. Roethke's poems are often rooted in his own personal experiences, particularly his childhood in Saginaw, Michigan, where his family owned a greenhouse. These early encounters with nature would profoundly shape his poetic vision, providing him with a rich source of imagery and metaphor.

Talk | Becoming Fifth Avenue: 200 Years of Architectural History
An illuminating journey through 200 years of architectural history. On November 1, 1824, Fifth Avenue was born. At the time, the first portion of the avenue, extending from Washington Square North (then "Art Street") to 13th Street, was nothing more than a country road, surrounded by farmland. But a mere quarter century later, Fifth Avenue was already transforming into one of New York City's grandest thoroughfares, lined by opulent mansions for some of the city's wealthiest inhabitants. While most of those original homes have since been demolished in favor of towering 20th-century hotels and apartment buildings, a select few remain in place to this day. Village Preservation's Dena Tasse-Winter and Chloe Gregoire will explore how they uncovered the history of every single building to ever be constructed along lower Fifth Avenue. They'll reveal just how many of the avenue's current buildings have been in place since the beginning, and which others are only the second generation of structures to be constructed there (almost all of them!).

Concert | Electroacoustic Music with Sounds of Nature
Everywhere We Are is the Farthest Place, an iterative soundscape composition, combines an electroacoustic performance with field recordings of glacial geologic activity and oceanographic data Mary Edwards gathered while on an art and science sailing expedition on a research vessel above the 78th parallel in Svalbard. This ode rather than an elegy to the transforming Arctic based on eyewitness accounts of natural events—iceberg torrents, calving glaciers, whale song and converging subterranean rivers—is sonically recreated as a score with intention of “decentralizing the centered and un-othering the others.”

Screening | Kidnapped: The Hostage Poster Wars: Screening and Discussion
On October 7, Dede Bandaid and Nitzan Mintz, Israeli artists in New York City for a residency program, never imagined they would spark a guerrilla public art war. Overwhelmed by the news from home about the mounting number of dead and kidnapped, they just wanted to channel their anguish into throwing a spotlight on the plight of the hostages. With the help of two graphic designers back home, they created "KIDNAPPED" posters with the images, names and ages of the hostages and began plastering them across the city, even asking random people to put them up in their neighborhoods. Suddenly, the posters were everywhere: on lamp posts, subway entrances, abandoned buildings. Just as suddenly, they were torn down, shredded or defaced, the word "KIDNAPPED" on one poster bearing the image of an 8-year-old girl replaced by the word "OCCUPIER." The posters are anti-Islamic propaganda, the defilers insisted. Pro-war agitprop. The new documentary film Torn delves into this proxy for a war thousands of miles away--the intense clashes between pro-Israel and pro-Palestine activists who turned New York City's streets into battlegrounds of ideology and emotion. This is a screening of the film and then a conversation with: -- Nitzan Mintz and Dede Bandaid, Street artists and KIDNAPPED Campaign designers -- Nina Mogilnik, Writer, Torn -- Nim Shapira, Writer, Director, Producer, Torn -- Alana Zeitchik, Hostage family member, Executive Director, The Narrow Bridge Project -- Moderated by Yuna Leibzon, US correspondent for Channel 12 News Israel.

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 be serving 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 first with Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia in 1942. Start times: 10:30am, 12pm, 1:30pm

Book Discussion | The Power of Black Excellence: HBCUs and the Fight for American Democracy by Deondra Rose
The Power of Black Excellence: HBCUs and the Fight for American Democracy offers a revealing history of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), which have been essential for empowering Black citizens and for the ongoing fight for democracy in the US. From their founding, HBCUs educated as many as 90 percent of Black college students in the United States. Although many are aware of the significance of HBCUs in expanding Black Americans' educational opportunities, much less attention has been paid to the vital role that they have played in enhancing American democracy. In The Power of Black Excellence, Deondra Rose provides an authoritative history of HBCUs and the unique role they have played in shaping American democracy since 1837. Drawing on over six years of deep research, Rose brings into view the historic impact that government support for HBCUs has had on the American political landscape, arguing that they have been essential for not only empowering Black citizens but also reshaping the distribution of political power in the United States. Rose challenges the conventional wisdom that, prior to the late twentieth century, the federal government took a laissez-faire approach to education. Instead, governmental action contributed to the expansion of HBCUs in an era plagued by racist policies and laws. Rose stresses that policymakers promote democracy itself when they support HBCUs and their unique approach to postsecondary education, which includes a commitment to helping students develop politically empowering skills, promoting political leadership, and fostering a commitment to service. At this event, author Deondra Rose will discuss her new book.

Book Discussion | Raised by Musical Mavericks: Recalling Life Lessons from Pete Seeger, Lightnin' Hopkins, Doc Watson, Rev. Gary Davis and Others by Mitch Greenhill
At age 13, Mitch Greenhill’s life was upended by a series of powerful musicians. As his father Manny Greenhill entered the music business, Pete Seeger, Lightnin’ Hopkins, Joan Baez, Reverend Gary Davis, Doc Watson and a host of others entered the family home. Crucially molded by these encounters, Mitch grew up to inherit that business, to play a lot of guitar, to record albums and to compose for theater. His musical memoir, Raised by Musical Mavericks: Recalling Life Lessons from Pete Seeger, Lightnin' Hopkins, Doc Watson, Rev. Gary Davis and Others, recounts stories from those years of discovery and coming-of-age. A number of Mitch's adventures — including his turn as opening act for Jesse “Lone Cat” Fuller at the Gaslight on MacDougal Street and his decades-long representation of that street’s “mayor” Dave Van Ronk — took place in the West Village. Mitch will read passages from the book, sing and play some songs, and answer questions.

Film | At Dark, I Become Loathsome by Eric LaRocca
From Eric LaRocca—Bram Stoker Award–nominated and Splatterpunk Award–winning author of Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke—comes At Dark, I Become Loathsome, a grim yet gentle, horrifying yet hopeful, intense tale of death, trauma, and love. “If you’re reading this, you’ve likely thought that the world would be a better place without you”: A single line of text, glowing in the darkness of the internet. Written by Ashley Lutin, who has often thought the same—and worse—in the years since his wife died and his young son disappeared. But the peace of the grave is not for him—it’s for those he can help. Ashley has constructed a peculiar ritual for those whose desire to die is at war with their yearning to live a better life. Struggling to overcome his own endless grief, one night Ashley finds connection with Jinx—a potential candidate for Ashley’s next ritual—who spins a tale both revolting and fascinating. Thus begins a relationship that traps the two men in an ever-tightening spiral of painful revelations, where long-hidden secrets are dragged, kicking and screaming, into the light. At this event, author Eric LaRocca will discuss their new book and more with fellow author Chuck Wendig.

Lecture | “Daylight at the Exit”: Women Translating Kafka
What does it mean for Kafka’s work that the first translations were by women? Michelle Woods examines this question in a lecture on Milena Jesenská and Willa Muir, and their roles in establishing Kafka as a globally influential writer. For years, both women have been misread and misrepresented: one was idealized as Kafka’s lover, the other faulted for the limitations of Kafka’s translations. Woods challenges these characterizations, re-centering the lives of these brilliant women in the story of Kafka and discussing their feminist impact on modern perceptions of his works.
