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

George Washington struggles to define his presidency; James Madison presents the Bill of Rights; Muscogee (Creek) Chief Alexander McGillivray maneuvers to preserve his nation's land by signing the first international treaty with the United States; and Ona Judge, a woman enslaved by Martha Washington, sees through the Quaker petitions to end the slave trade.

Gallery Talk | Houses of Life: Synagogues and Cemeteries in Italy: Exhibition Tour (online)
A virtual tour of an exhibit currently on display at the National Museum of Italian Judaism and the Shoah. Curated by Andrea Morpurgo and Amedeo Spagnoletto, this exhibit offers an innovative in-depth approach focusing on the architecture, rituals, and the roles played by both synagogues and Jewish cemeteries in the Jewish community. Visitors will explore the specifically Italian nature of these two places, while understanding the over two thousand years of history of the country’s Jewish community. The history of cities and of human beings intertwine in the exhibit, through their original architecture, artifacts that are passed down in and between families, and are on display. Among these are prestigious loans such as the Aron ha-Qodesh, the holy Ark, of the Vercelli Jewish Community and many precious documents from both State Archives and Italian Jewish Communities.

Book Discussion | Crooked, but Never Common: The Films of Preston Sturges
Stuart Klawans combines a critic’s insight and a fan’s enthusiasm to offer deeper ways to think about and enjoy Sturges’s work. He provides an in-depth appreciation of all ten of the writer-director’s major movies, presenting Sturges as a filmmaker whose work balanced slapstick and social critique, American and European traditions, and cynicism and affection for his characters. Tugging at loose threads―discontinuities, puzzles, and allusions that have dangled in plain sight―and putting the films into a broader cultural context, Klawans reveals structures, motives, and meanings underlying the uproarious pleasures of Sturges’s movies. In this new light, Sturges emerges at last as one of the truly great filmmakers―and funnier than ever.

Author Reading | Karl Marx Private Eye by Jim Feast
Karl Marx Private Eye by Jim Feast is a suspenseful whodunit, against the backdrop of real historical events, that brings sixteen-year-old Sherlock Holmes together with Karl Marx and his brilliant daughter Eleanor to solve a cascading series of murders at a Bohemian spa. Karl Marx Private Eye is a page-turner filled with tricky clues and colorful detectives, written in a parody of Arthur Conan Doyle. Reading at this event is author Jim Feast, along with Bonny Finberg, Linda Kleinbub, Ron Kolm, Yuko Otomo, Jerome Sala, Carl Watson, Carol Wierzbicki, and Jeff Wright. About the Author Jim Feast helped found the action-oriented literary group the Unbearables, known for such events as a protest against the commodification of the Beats at NYU's Kerouac Conference; annual readings with poets spread out across the Brooklyn Bridge; and a blindfold tour of the Whitney Museum. In the early 1980s, he met and married Nhi Chung, author of Among the Boat People. She introduced him to Chinatown movie theaters, which played the path-breaking Hong Kong noir detective films of those days, giving him a new way to look at the murder mystery. Feast has worked for Fairchild Publications and later taught at Kingsborough Community College. He edited seven books by Ralph Nader, including his three novels, and worked with Barney Rosset on his autobiography.

Discussion | Frederick Kiesler: From the Theater to Galaxies – Reaching into Space
Abraham Thomas and Stephanie Buhmann have a conversation about the Austrian-American artist Frederick Kiesler. Recognized as one of the important avant-garde artists of the 20th Century with roots in Europe and the United States of America, Frederick Kiesler (1890 – 1965, born in Austria-Hungary as Friedrich Kiesler) closely associated with key members of De Stijl, Dada, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism and Pop-Art. He exhibited in the Museum of Modern Art, New York and The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum; was represented by two of the most powerful American art dealers of the postwar era, Sidney Janis and Leo Castelli, and was subject of countless magazine and newspaper articles. As a pioneering multi-disciplinary artist, he never belonged to one movement and explored various artforms simultaneously, ranging from architecture, theater and furniture design to sculpture, painting, and expansive installations. In their brief presentations and proceeding conversation, which will allow for a Q & A segment with the audience, Abraham Thomas and Stephanie Buhmann will discuss some of Kiesler’s radical ideas and how they manifested in his "Model for the Universal Theater for Woodstock, New York" (1931), currently on view at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, and a series of fragmented paintings from the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s, which Kiesler himself had coined Galaxies, and which will be featured in a major retrospective of the artist’s paintings and sculptures at Kunsthaus Zug, Switzerland, in 2024.

Play | Euripides's The Bacchae: Going Mad in Thebes
Consider to be Euripides' magnum opus, The Bacchae is play about wisdom. Euripides uses Dionysus, not only the god of wine and revelry or the god in whose honor the dramatic festivals are held annually but, by extension, the god of the human subconscious, transporting us to where Dionysus was born, in Thebes, where the action of the play is set. Thebes is now ruled by his cousin, Pentheus, who opposes Dionysus' cult. There, he sees the sacred tomb of his mother, Semele, daughter of Cadmus, the founder of Thebes. Despite his success in the East where his cult has been accepted, the Greeks, who are nonbelievers, are taught a lesson, as Dionysus has cast his spirit upon the Thebans, represented by the Chorus, driving them mad, having them run out of their homes in ecstatic frenzy and calling to others to join them.
