Tour | Walking the Harlem River: Lost Waterfronts and Buried Creeks


This walk will explore the history of lost waterways in Marble Hill and Kingsbridge, where the Harlem River was rerouted more than a century ago, and its tributaries filled in. Today, the shoreline is inaccessible, and the lowlands are prone to frequent flooding. We will follow the route of the proposed daylighting of Tibbetts Brook, which once flowed into Spuyten Duyvil Creek, and will consider how this buried waterway could be reconnected with the Harlem River, and become part of the proposed Harlem River Greenway. This walk is designed and led by Nathan Kensinger, a journalist, photographer, filmmaker and curator, who has been documenting New York City’s changing waterfront for 15 years.

Other | Day of the Dead Ofrenda (Offering at an Altar): A Ceremonial Celebration


Life is a Dream is an art installation inspired by the Mexican Day of the Dead. The tradition is based on the belief in the connection between the living and the deceased and the everlasting link between this world and the next. On the Day of the Dead, ofrendas - offerings placed at an altar - welcome the spirits of our loved ones for one night. Attendees are encouraged to bring small photographs (copies, not originals) and cards to place on the altar to remember their loved ones (no food or candles, please). Day of the Dead is a revered celebration unrelated to Halloween.
