Discussion | DNA of the Ottoman Empire: Crossroads of the Jewish People (in-person and online)


The Avotaynu DNA Project aims to explore the genetic connections among Jewish communities worldwide, particularly focusing on those that found refuge in the Ottoman Empire during various historical periods. This project highlights the genetic diversity and shared heritage among Jews from different regions, as well as the impact of migration and historical events on their DNA. By analyzing DNA samples from various Jewish populations, Adam Brown and Michael Waas intend to showcase how the genetic markers reveal common ancestry and connections that trace back to the Ottoman Empire, where many Jewish communities flourished. The findings may illuminate the historical movements of Jewish populations, their integration into diverse cultures, and their resilience through centuries of change. This research not only contributes to the understanding of Jewish genealogy but also provides insights into the broader narrative of the Jewish diaspora, reinforcing the idea that despite geographical and cultural differences, there exists a profound genetic link among Jews worldwide. The emphasis on the Ottoman Empire as a refuge underscores the historical significance of this region in shaping Jewish identity and continuity. Speakers Adam Brown was the National Co-Chair of 2017 annual conference of the International Association of Jewish Genealogical Societies (IAJGS) in Orlando and is the President of the non-profit Avotaynu Foundation. He is the Project Administrator of the Avotaynu DNA Project, a multi-disciplinary worldwide collaboration to utilize DNA to illuminate known events in Jewish history from the consolidation of the Israelite tribes 3,200 years ago to the present. Adam has been an avid genealogist for more than three decades and has spoken at dozens of conference venues on the subject of Jewish genealogy and history, including 18 Zoom lectures delivered to Jewish Genealogical Societies across the country during the COVID epidemic. Michael Waas is a professional genealogist and historian, specializing in Sephardic Jewry, with his firm, Hollander-Waas Jewish Heritage Services. He received his bachelor’s degree in anthropology with a specialization in Historical Archaeology from New College of Florida and his master’s degree from the Department of Jewish History at the University of Haifa. The subject of his M.A. thesis was “Istorya i oy: A comparative study on the Development of Jewish Heritage of the former Ottoman Empire.” For the year 2017-2018 he received the Gaon Prize for Outstanding M.A. Thesis research of the Moshe David Gaon Center for Judeo-Spanish (Ladino) Culture, as well as the Prize for Research into the Heritage of Sephardi and Mizrahi Jewry, awarded by the Ben Zvi Institute and the Israeli Ministry of Education. Michael is co-administrator of the AvotaynuDNA Project and, since 2023, he has been Associate Director of the Sephardic Researcher Division of JewishGen. In September 2023 he received a 12-month appointment as Scholar-in-Residence at the New York Genealogical & Biographical Society to survey its archive and collection for Jewish-related materials.

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

Film | Death on the Nile (1978) with Mia Farrow and Angela Lansbury


On a luxurious cruise on the Nile River, a wealthy heiress, Linnet Ridgeway, is murdered. Fortunately, among the passengers are famed Belgian detective Hercule Poirot and his trusted companion, Colonel Race. The two immediately begin their investigation. But just as Poirot identifies a motley collection of would-be murderers, several of the suspects also meet their demise, which only deepens the mystery of the killer's identity. Director: John Guillermin Cast: Peter Ustinov, Mia Farrow, Maggie Smith, Bette Davis, Angela Lansbury Mia Farrow is an American actress who first gained notice for her role as Allison MacKenzie in the television soap opera Peyton Place and gained further recognition for her subsequent short-lived marriage to Frank Sinatra.

She went on to appear in several films throughout the 1970s, such as Follow Me! (1972), The Great Gatsby (1974), and Death on the Nile (1978). Angela Lansbury was a British and American actress and singer. In a career spanning 80 years, she played various roles across film, stage, and television.

Poetry Reading | Forest of Noise: Searing and Whimsical Poems


A reading with author Mosab Abu Toha as he sits down with Camonghne Felix to discuss his latest work Forest of Noise.  Moving between glimpses of life in relative peacetime and absurdist poems about surviving in a barely livable occupation, Forest of Noise invites a wide audience into an experience that defies the imagination--even as it is watched live. Abu Toha's poems introduce readers to his extended family, some of them no longer with us. This is an urgent, extraordinary, and arrestingly whimsical book. Searing and beautiful, it brings us indelible art in a time of terrible suffering.

Opening Reception | Elidor Mehilli: An infinite archive: Albania's Transformation


Since the early 2000s, Elidor Mehilli has assembled a vast archive on the dramatic transformation of his hometown, Tirana, Albania. This body of work encompasses photographic series, thousands of documents, ephemera, and found objects. While research often takes him inside formal party, state, and security police archives, this broader visual practice reimagines the idea of the archive itself. Mëhilli’s work captures Tirana’s bewildering transition from communist-era central planning to neoliberalism. The collapse of the party-state in the early 1990s triggered a mass migration to the periphery of the city, which was ill-equipped to handle it. Ordinary residents transformed into amateur architects, converting ground floors into shops and adding illegal floors to prefabricated blocks. Various governments have tried to dominate the city, but Tirana tends to defy them, pursuing an unruled life. As tourism surges today, star architects flock to the capital to design gleaming high-rises. The construction craze and the steep rise in real estate prices puts immense pressure on historical landmarks located on valuable land. In this heady rush to attract money and attention—to reinvent a city and a country so that it becomes legible to the West—what to do with versions of the past deemed unmarketable? In a process that began with earlier shows at galleries at Cornell University (2005) and Princeton University (2007), Mëhilli explores this ongoing tug-of-war. He tracks the transformation of familiar places of his teenage years, like the raw graffitied façade of a housing block that served as a backdrop to a playground and a mysterious kiosk stuffed with old books that has somehow survived the decades of turmoil. He assembles textual and visual biographies of erased architecture, documents the denials to his requests for access to classified archival files, collects “obsolete history” discarded along city streets, and writes editorials for local papers, putting together a counter-archive to a country struggling with its past and desperate to plug itself into global circuits of capital.

Book Discussion | All the World Beside: Gay in Puritan New England


Garrard Conley presents his electrifying, deeply moving novel about the love story between two men in Puritan New England Cana, Massachusetts: a utopian vision of 18th-century Puritan New England. To the outside world, Reverend Nathaniel Whitfield and his family stand as godly pillars of their small-town community, drawing Christians from across the New World into their fold. One such Christian, physician Arthur Lyman, discovers in the minister's words a love so captivating it transcends language. As the bond between these two men grows more and more passionate, their families must contend with a tangled web of secrets, lies, and judgments which threaten to destroy them in this world and the next. And when the religious ecstasies of the Great Awakening begin to take hold, igniting a new era of zealotry, Nathaniel and Arthur search for a path out of an impossible situation, imagining a future for themselves which has no name. Their wives and children must do the same, looking beyond the known world for a new kind of wilderness, both physical and spiritual. Set during the turbulent historical upheavals which shaped America's destiny and following in the tradition of Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter, All the World Beside reveals the very human lives just beneath the surface of dogmatic belief. Bestselling author Garrard Conley has created a page-turning, vividly imagined historical tale that is both a love story and a crucible.

The program builds on the rich devotional repertoire in the Indian, Persian and Arab traditions. The many paths to the Divine cross at meeting points where different languages, religions and mystical traditions use the same language of love and metaphors of intoxication. Souls yearning for unity with the universe in a primordial state of complete knowledge, and express that yearning, Wajd as the Sufis call it, through poetry and song. Most members of the ensemble have been making music together for more than two decades and find joy and meaning in these re-encounters of cultures, religions and languages that have interacted with each other throughout history.

Talk | Photographer Talk: Picturing Fashion


A talk with fashion photographer Diane Allford. Born in Philadelphia, Allford grew up in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. She initially took photography classes to help with her work as a broadcast and print journalist. Soon after, she fell in love with photography. Allford’s style centers narrative. Her fashion photography is part of her journey starting out as an urban street-style photographer. Today, she is a professional fashion and advertising photographer. Allford shoots editorial and commercial imagery for marketing, eCommerce, and advertising. Through collaboration with fashion designers, wardrobe stylists, and hair and makeup artist professionals, she creates fashion images based on the aesthetics of the clothes, the locations, and the magic that happens when everyone comes together on set. There is a different approach in post-production where she creates surreal fashion-forward fine art digital collages that incorporate the fashion photos with additional visual elements that sometimes include social commentary.

Book Discussion | Never a Dull Moment: The 80th Airborne Anti-Aircraft Artillery Battalion in World War II (online)


Historian Ben Powers will speak on his latest book. Most modern books and films glamorize World War II airborne soldiers as troopers leaping into the night to descend by parachute into combat. Much less often considered is the role of glider forces. Glider troops lacked the panache and special distinctions of paratroopers, despite their critical role in airborne warfare. Likewise, World War II ground combat is characterized as a combined arms fight of infantry and armor, backed up with field artillery; by comparison the role played by specialized, supporting arms has received scant attention. The 80th AAA Battalion was a glider outfit, providing antiaircraft defense and antitank capability to the division’s three infantry regiments as battlefield conditions dictated. Elements of the battalion fought in Italy, Normandy, Holland and the Battle of the Bulge, making combat glider assaults during both Operation Neptune and Operation Market Garden. The exploits of the men of the 80th tend to be obscured as commanders maneuvered the batteries wherever their special skills were needed on the battlefield, with no regiment to call a permanent home. The 80th AAA battalion was a hybrid unit. While its members were considered Coast Artillery (the branch responsible for defending ground formations from air attack during WWII), they fought alongside parachute and glider infantry, most often providing direct fire, anti-armor support with 57mm/6 pounder cannons. While field artillery, both parachute and glider, established their gunlines some distance behind infantry units to provide indirect fire support, the men of the 80th fought face to face with the enemy, alongside their infantry brothers.

Lecture | "There is something mad about the art”: The German-Jewish Art Dealer Alfred Flechtheim and His Heirs’ Fight for Restitution (online)


Journalist Michael Sontheimer will speak about Alfred Flechtheim, who was born in 1878 in Münster as the son of a wealthy German Jewish grain dealer. He was trained as a trader but did not want to stay in the family business. As he was fascinated with art, he left his hometown and moved to Düsseldorf, where he opened a gallery in 1913. After serving in the German Army during the First World War, in 1921 he opened a second gallery in Berlin, the place to be in the 1920s. He brought works from modern French artists like Picasso, Braque, Chagall, and others to Germany. He also made German painters like Max Beckmann, George Grosz, and Paul Klee widely known.

Interdisciplinary scholar, Janice Ross, explores the connection between dance and cultural politics, examines how homes and landscape architecture shaped choreography through the work of California dancer Anna Halprin (1920-2021). Halprin played a key role in redefining dance in postwar America, pioneering the experimental art form of postmodern dance, and proudly saw herself as a rule-breaker of modern dance. Drawing on decades of research, interviews with the Halprins and their associates, and firsthand experiences in their homes, Ross provides a fresh perspective on Halprin’s career, enriched by archival films of her workshops, rehearsals, and outdoor studio, the dance deck.

Book Discussion | Borders and Belonging: Toward a Fair Immigration Policy


A uniquely broad and fair-minded guide to making immigration policy ethical. Immigration is now a polarizing issue across most advanced democracies. But too much that is written about immigration fails to appreciate the complex responses to the phenomenon. Too many observers assume imaginary consensus, avoid basic questions, or disregard the larger context for human migration. Author Hiroshi Motomura offers a complex and fair-minded account of immigration, its root causes, and the varying responses to it. Taking stock of the issue's complexity, while giving credence to the opinions of immigration critics, he tackles a series of important questions that, when answered, will move us closer to a more realistic and sustainable immigration policy.

Discussion | On the Italian Stage: Solo Shows (online)


On the Italian Stage is a series of encounters conceived and led by Laura Caparrotti (Artistic Director, Kairos Italy Theater) that journeys into the history of Italian theater to explore its language, and its contribution to Italian society and world theater. Solo shows are increasingly becoming a cornerstone of Italian theater. Their affordability, ease of production, and flexibility for touring make them a practical choice for many artists and companies. Despite their simplicity, these performances are highly impactful, often delivering powerful narratives with minimal resources. In fact, solo shows may currently represent the heart of the Italian theatrical landscape, offering a genuine reflection of both the audience’s interests and the artists’ passions. They provide an intimate platform for storytelling, giving voice to personal, social, and cultural themes that resonate deeply in today’s Italy.

Book Discussion | Bruno Schulz and Galician Jewish Modernity: A Writer at a Historical Juncture


Author Karen Underhill discusses her book. In the 1930s, through the prose of Bruno Schulz (1892–1942), the Polish language became the linguistic raw material for a profound exploration of the modern Jewish experience. Rather than turning away from the language like a number of his Galician Jewish colleagues who would choose to write in Yiddish, Schulz used the Polish language to explore his own and his generation's relationship to East European Jewish exegetical tradition, and to deepen his reflection on golus or exile as a condition not only of the individual and of the Jewish community, but of language itself, and of matter. Drawing on new archival discoveries, this study explores Schulz's diasporic Jewish modernism as an example of the creative and also transient poetic forms that emerged on formerly Habsburg territory, at the historical juncture between empire and nation-state.

Lecture | Belonging with Songs: Towards an Historical Anthropology of Medieval French Chansons


Why do we sing? How does singing shape how we see ourselves and how we relate to one another? Emma Dillon takes up these universal questions in the context of a medieval song community. Her talk explores Medieval French songs (trouvere songs) as a social practice, linked to specific people and families from Northern France and to other forms of social activity. She offers a case study of twelfth-century trouveres (using new recordings of their songs), and shows how songs, charters and seals foster a sense of belonging to a community. Her talk also introduces the UKRI-funded project, Musical Lives, which takes further the possibility of song-centred histories through interdisciplinary collaboration with scholars and performers.

Book Discussion | My Friends: Coming of Age in the Arab Spring


One evening, as a young boy growing up in Benghazi, Khaled hears a bizarre short story read aloud on the radio, about a man being eaten alive by a cat, and has the sense that his life has been changed forever. Obsessed by the power of those words—and by their enigmatic author, Hosam Zowa—Khaled eventually embarks on a journey that will take him far from home, to pursue a life of the mind at the University of Edinburgh. There, thrust into an open society that is miles away from the world he knew in Libya, Khaled begins to change. He attends a protest against the Qaddafi regime in London, only to watch it explode into tragedy. In a flash, Khaled finds himself injured, clinging to life, unable to leave Britain, much less return to the country of his birth. To even tell his mother and father back home what he has done, on tapped phone lines, would expose them to danger. When a chance encounter in a hotel brings Khaled face-to-face with Hosam Zowa, the author of the fateful short story, he is subsumed into the deepest friendship of his life. It is a friendship that not only sustains him but eventually forces him, as the Arab Spring erupts, to confront agonizing tensions between revolution and safety, family and exile, and how to define his own sense of self against those closest to him.

Classical Music | Dialogues in Time: Cello Works by Bach and More


A musical dialog that connects 300 years, with Austrian cellist and composer Matthias Bartolomey. Bartolomey brings a bold new solo program centered around the principle of duality. The performance features a blend of Johann Sebastian Bach's iconic Six Suites for Solo Cello and Bartolomey's own contemporary compositions, influenced by groove, rock, and modern rhythms. By drawing inspiration from Bach's timeless motifs and intricate baroque rhythms, Bartolomey creates a unique tonal language that intertwines with the traditional while never altering Bach's original works. His compositions serve as a reflection of today's world, offering a modern commentary on the centuries-old dance forms. A musical dialogue that spans over 300 years, Dialogues in Time captures the essence of both the past and the present, merging the classical with the contemporary. Known for his innovative and boundary-pushing approach, Bartolomey invites the audience into a deeply emotional and thought-provoking performance, where tradition and modernity coexist in harmony.

Discussion | Israel on Our Minds with Ambassador Ido Aharoni (in-person and online)


Even those of us who follow the news from Israeli regularly are left with more questions than insight: How should we think about Israel security in the face of a rapidly changing Middle East? What is the government doing in response to the worldwide condemnation of the Jewish State . . . and what could it do? Has the Start-Up Nation sputtered out? Can the breach between the religious and the secular populations be healed -- and how? Does the Israeli government take the concerns and opinions of the Jewish diaspora seriously enough? Should it? With so many questions -- and so much confusion -- they have recruited the ideal person to pull back the curtain on the complicated situation: an Israel diplomat, university professor, writer and investor, Ido Aharoni.

Book Discussion | Zero Sum: The Arc of International Business in Russia


When the hammer and sickle came down in late 1991, Russia’s feverish new market opened for business. From banking to breweries, sectors emerged out of nowhere, in a country that had never had a functioning economy. For the next three turbulent decades, a wild, proto-capitalist free-for-all transformed Russian society. Then, in 2022, Putin launched the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. The market started to collapse; Western firms fled Moscow’s skyscrapers. No country this large had ever transformed itself as dizzyingly as 1990s Russia–now, just as dramatically, it was over. The intervening decades had seen phenomenal successes and crushing failures; the creation and destruction of enormous fortunes. How did it all happen? Charles Hecker's book brings to life the complex, vivid color of one of the greatest experiments in the history of global commerce. What have businesses learnt–or failed to learn–from this adventure, both about Russia and about dynamics between countries and companies in the face of relentless change?

Gallery Talk | Dreaming of Home: Exhibition Talk on Belonging, Community, and Identity (online)


Brooke Wyatt and Gemma Rolls-Bentley explore the museum’s collection through the prism of belonging, community, and identity.   The American Folk Art Museum's collection features many artists who have experienced disenfranchisement and faced brutal social and economic restrictions. Their artworks often complicate conventional representations of domesticity and protection, even as they materialize a sense of belonging and hold onto the “dream of home.” Curator Brooke Wyatt invites curator and writer Gemma Rolls-Bentley to present the curatorial framework behind Dreaming of Home, recently on view at the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art in New York. This project explores the idea of home beyond its physical space, considering the roles of community, family, spirituality, and the body in creating a safe and comfortable place. Through the works of twenty contemporary queer artists, Rolls-Bentley suggests that building a home is sometimes a hard-won process that requires faith, creativity, and imagination. Speakers will reflect on themes of self-care, queerness, artistic identity, and world-building, and will engage with artists featured in Somewhere to Roost, including works by Lee Godie, Thornton Dial, Sr., and a selection of hand-tinted vernacular photographs.

Lecture | A Trip into the Archive: The Case of Otto Schneid (online)


YIVO’s Museum of Jewish Art, Judaica, and Art History was initiated in the mid-1930s at YIVO’s Vilna headquarters. Those involved included the well-known artist Marc Chagall and the Austrian-Jewish art historian Otto Schneid. Before Schneid was tapped to spearhead this museum, he had dedicated years of his life to creating a kind of encyclopedia of contemporary Jewish artists, many of them contributors to L’Ecole de Paris and satellites of this avant-garde art movement in cities across Europe. Beginning in 1929, Schneid travelled to view the artwork of over one hundred a hundred Jewish artists such as Chana Orloff, Alfred Reth, Oscar Miestchaninoff, and Henryk Streng. He also corresponded with them by letter, and the artists sent him photographs of their work along with their biographies. Schneid submitted the manuscript of his encyclopedia to his publisher in 1937. Following the Anschluss of March 1938, the Nazis raided the publishing house and destroyed the manuscript. Schneid escaped Europe with the letters and photographs he had gathered with the hope of recreating the book. Based on her archival work at YIVO and at the University of Toronto’s Fisher Library, Alyssa Quint discusses the lives of Schneid and his artists and uses the case of Schneid to reflect on the allure of and impediments to archival research.

Book Discussion | Art in Ukraine Between Identity Construction and Anti-Colonial Resistance (in-person and online)


Editor Svitlana Biedarieva's volume traces the development of art practices in Ukraine from the 2004 Orange Revolution, through the 2013-2014 Revolution of Dignity, to the ongoing Russian war of aggression. Contributors explore how transformations of identity, the emergence of participatory democracy, relevant changes to cultural institutions, and the realization of the necessity of decolonial release have influenced the focus and themes of contemporary art practices in Ukraine. The chapters analyze such important topics as the postcolonial retrieval of the past, the deconstruction of post-Soviet visualities, representations of violence and atrocities in the ongoing Russian war against Ukraine, and the notion of art as a mechanism of civic resistance and identity-building. The book will be of interest to scholars of art history, Eastern European studies, cultural studies, decolonial studies, and postcolonial studies.

Book Discussion | Heroines, Harpies, and Housewives: Imaging Women of Consequence in the Dutch Golden Age (online)


Author Martha Moffitt Peacock provides a novel interpretive approach to the artistic practice of Imaging Women of Consequence in the Dutch Golden Age. From the beginnings of the new Republic, visual celebrations of famous heroines who crossed gender boundaries by fighting in the Revolt against Spain or by distinguishing themselves in arts and letters became an essential and significant cultural tradition that reverberated throughout the long seventeenth century. This collective memory of consequential heroines who equaled, or outshone, men is frequently reflected in empowering representations of other female archetypes: authoritative harpies and noble housewives. Such enabling imagery helped in the structuring of gender norms that positively advanced a powerful female identity in Dutch society.

Opening Reception | Rupert Deese: Rivers and Streams


“The painted forms in the exhibition precisely transfer the shapes of Sierra Nevada cirques and their adjacent headwaters into scaled-down versions of the landscape— essentially creating a bird's-eye view of the mountain and river shapes. I am looking to make work that does not conceptualize these aspects of the Sierra Nevada but rather stands by in the room as an articulate and pleasant presence. With these works, the colors, shapes, and lines confirm the pleasure and awareness of being in a beautiful setting.” -- Rupert Deese

Classical Music | In Nomine Ensemble: Elegance & Wildness (in-person and online)


In Elegance & Wildness, In Nomine Ensemble explores the musical intersections where Georg Philipp Telemann’s works engage with the refined elegance of French Baroque style and the spirited, untamed energy of Eastern Europe. The program reflects Telemann’s time in Paris and his exposure to the French Baroque tradition, influenced by his interactions with French composers while maintaining his distinctive voice. Following the Nouveaux quatuors, selected pieces from the Uhrovska Collection (1730) will be heard, alongside his Trio Sonata in D minor, which reveals his fascination with Eastern European folk traditions. In Nomine Ensemble is an NYC-based early music ensemble. In Nomine, which translates from Latin to “in the name of,” explores familiar and lesser-known Renaissance and Baroque works with an attitude of play and curiosity. They challenge the traditional Baroque trio sonata with their unique instrumentation and backgrounds while performing on historically accurate instruments and styles. In Nomine Ensemble has received support from The Juilliard School, Gotham Early Music Scene, and Silentwoods Collective. They are also featured artists with Sacred Music at Columbia University, The Bohemians Musician Club NYC, Off the Dock Chamber Festival. They have participated in Les Arts Florissants artist residency program and the Avaloch Farm Music Institute residency program.

Lecture | Skulls, Sculptures and the Kaiser’s Museums


What can museums tell us about a nation’s self-image? How does Germany approach its colonial past in light of the Holocaust? Berlin’s national museums have become the focus of current debates around repatriation and colonial collections – most visibly those now housed inside the contested Humboldt Forum. But the Humboldt Forum is just the beginning.This talk moves beyond the ethnological collections inside the resurrected Prussian castle in the center of Berlin. It ties recent discussions to other, hitherto neglected sites, such as the seemingly unproblematic antiquity collections from the former Ottoman Empire on Berlin’s Museum Island, and collections of human remains from ‘German East Africa' held in the storage facilities on the city’s periphery. How were all these collections entangled not only with each other but also with global networks of trade, material extraction and exploitative labour? In the late nineteenth century, these collections were furthermore exploited to consolidate triumphalist narratives of 'Western civilization' and human history – not least by providing the raw materials for a new form of ‘scientific’ antisemitism and racism that developed around 1900 onwards: with fatal consequences in the twentieth century. In spite of these problematic legacies, however, Berlin’s urban center still reflects an imperial mindset in the wake of an affirmative monumentalization of the Wilhelmine era. This tells us as much about race and memory politics in Germany today. Following the lecture, Mirjam Brusius will be joined in conversation by Professor Avinoam Shalem, Riggio Professor of the History of the Arts of Islam. A reception will conclude the evening.

Book Discussion | Knowing What We Know: The Transmission of Knowledge from Ancient Wisdom to Modern Magic (online)


Simon Winchester's latest book explores how humans have attained, stored, and disseminated knowledge. Examining such disciplines as education, journalism, encyclopedia creation, museum curation, photography, and broadcasting, he looks at a whole range of knowledge diffusion--from the cuneiform writings of Babylon to the machine-made genius of artificial intelligence, by way of Gutenberg, Google, and Wikipedia to the huge Victorian assemblage of the Mundanaeum, the collection of everything ever known, currently stored in a damp basement in northern Belgium.

In Noah Diaz's play, a class of high school juniors are tasked with a simple Home Ec assignment: parent a sack of flour for a week or fail. When the flour babies begin dying one by one, the students stop at nothing to ensure that they, and the pretend children they bore, are the last ones standing. A play with war, carnage, and genocide, The Juniors is a pitch black comedy about the ambitious and cut-throat world of high school Home Economics and the lengths we'll go to in order to protect what we think is ours.

Concert | Tribute to British Punk Musician Poly Styrene


Galvanized by a Sex Pistols concert, the UK-born Marion Elliot adapted the sobriquet Poly Styrene, formed a band and then promptly changed the history of rock by recording the seminal punk anthem Oh Bondage! Up Yours! Poly Styrene would only release one album in the 1970s, but Germ Free Adolescents would prove to be one of the most influential LPs of its era. For this evening of music by and inspired by Poly Styrene and her band X-Ray Spex, the American Songbook band--featuring Keyanna Hutchinson (guitar), Barbara Duncan (percussion), Flora Lucini (bass), and Elenna Canlas (keyboards and vocals)--will be joined by an array of musical luminaries, all paying their respects to a true punk pioneer.

Talk | Invaded Forests: A Material Demonstration


A material demonstration using native, invasive, and farmed plant species to examine the land they shape and their industrial processes.   The language of an “invaded land” obscures our role in creating what much of local land looks like. Invasive trees (invaders), native forests (invaded), industrial forests—which are both invading and now being invaded—, and urban growth that is constantly encroached: each of these plant types and locations for growth are layers of intention, adaptation, and resilience. Artist and designer Frank Dallas will lead participants in a material demonstration that examines how native, invasive, and farmed plant species shape the land they inhabit, their ties to industrial processes, and our evolving relationship to them. Natural materials will be explored through the parallels between the materials we grow and build with and how and where they grow. Participants will have the opportunity to interact with various materials while discussing their role in ecosystems, their material strengths and weaknesses, and how their use as commodities influence the land.

Play | The Juniors: A Pitch Black Comedy


In Noah Diaz's play, a class of high school juniors are tasked with a simple Home Ec assignment: parent a sack of flour for a week or fail. When the flour babies begin dying one by one, the students stop at nothing to ensure that they, and the pretend children they bore, are the last ones standing. A play with war, carnage, and genocide, The Juniors is a pitch black comedy about the ambitious and cut-throat world of high school Home Economics and the lengths we'll go to in order to protect what we think is ours.

Play | ...and we never went back: Living on a Changed Earth


Set 100 years in the future, ...and we never went back envisions a world transformed beyond recognition. Decades of hurricanes, wildfires, tsunamis, droughts, and rising temperatures have reshaped Earth's ecosystems, forcing all inhabitants--human and non-human alike--to adapt to new ways of living and surviving. Through the interplay of movement, words, and sound, a group of individuals gathers to share stories of migration and resilience, many centered on our deep interconnection with non-human kin. This is a tale of a forever-changed landscape and the impact on those who call it home. A student production.
