Workshop | A Meeting of the New York Correspondence School: A Mail Art Worshop


Greenwich Village has a long history as a home for radical avant-garde artists. Ray Johnson, a queer artist and the so-called “father of Mail Art,” began his New York Correspondence School in this very neighborhood. Throughout the 1960s and 70s, Johnson hosted a number of New York Correspondence School meetings, which often took the form of Happening-meets-workshop. These meetings, first in person and by mail invitation only, evolved into conceptual “meetings” that occurred through a series of additive postal correspondences. Stop by this workshop to learn more about “New York’s most famous unknown artist” and make a piece of Johnson-inspired mail art of your own.

Performance | Late, Late Frogs: Aristophanes on Network Television


Octavio Vourvoulias' adaptation recontextualizes the last section of Aristophanes’ Frogs–the agon sophias between the shades of Aeschylus and Euripides in the Underworld—into a televised debate between two popular musicians of different genres and generations, in the present-day. These artists argue about which one of them pursues a more effective type of social activism in their music. Aeschylus is represented by Andy Page, a classic rocker whose politics are rooted in the folk movement and the protests against the Vietnam War. Embodying Euripides is E-Danger, a younger, nonbinary pop-adjacent artist with a more cynical worldview informed by issues like the financial crisis, social media, and climate change. The debate is moderated by the show’s host, standing in for Dionysus (who is not as unbiased as she should be), backed by the house band, Don Plutón Y Las Ranas. The debate, parallel to its Aristophanic equivalent, satirizes critical culture and genre labels, and interrogates the role of art in political activism. Octavio Vourvoulias is an actor and playwright based in Brooklyn. He graduated with a degree in Classics from Columbia University last year.

Opening Reception | Of The Echoes: Sculptures and Paintings


For London-based Seohyun Oh, the world is an ever-evolving entity, where even seemingly static forms pulse with an inherent vitality. Oh's painted landscapes, far from literal depictions, are abstracted into fluid representations that transcend the conventional, revealing an underlying rhythm of movement and energy. For Brooklyn-based Nilson, the salvaging and revitalization of debris is fundamental to his sculptural practice. His studio, a dense repository of found objects scoured from both urban and natural landscapes, contains specimens, curiosities, and other raw materials. Nilson sources these objects from interstitial spaces - between roadways and wooded areas, land and water - places where everyday artifacts accumulate.

Book Discussion | Inspired and Outraged: The Making of a Feminist Physician


Alice Rothchild‘s free verse autobiography. Rothchild will read from her remarkable account of her journey from 1950’s good girl to irreverent, feisty, feminist obstetrician-gynecologist forging her own direction in the contradictory, sexist world of medicine. Coming of age in the turbulent 1960s, she was compelled to create a path in the often outrageous, male-dominated medical field, opening an all-woman practice, working with midwives, challenging the status quo, shaped by her early involvement with Our Bodies Ourselves. Rothchild’s poems are steeped in the often-shocking history of medicine and the conflicted sexual politics of the second half of the twentieth century.

Performance | Moist Futures: Cripto Sirena Chronicles: Performance Art and Conversation


Moist Futures: Cripto Sirena Chronicles is a performative encounter that blurs the lines between artist talk, poetry, drag, and collective body activations. Drawing inspiration from the collaborative sci-fi fable Cripto Sirenas, the event invites the audience to immerse themselves in a speculative world where fluidity, interconnectedness, and resistance reshape the narrative of extractivist technology and Web-3 ecology. The evening will open with a poetry reading by Lucy Tomasino in Spanish, weaving a tale of ecofeminist resilience, through selected texts. Alongside body activation Sunny Pfalzer guides the audience through the evening, exploring the interconnectedness of body, voice, and world, syncing into a collective resonance and activating the body as technology. As the audience dives deeper into the Cripto Sirenas fable through a reading by Anna Ehrenstein, Alexa Evangelista, joins virtually in drag in her role as the crypto bailarina, embodying a multifaceted humanoid savior whose fluidity and transformation defy the rigid binaries of tech-totalitarian rule. The evening concludes with a short reading of Josh Davilas, the 5th collaborator and author of "Blockchain Radicals - How Capitalism ruined Crypto and how to fix it" and a conversation and q&a with the artists on somatic, research based artistic collaboration.

Book Club | Hurrican Season by Fernanda Melchor


The Witch is dead. And the discovery of her corpse has the whole village investigating the murder. As the novel unfolds in a dazzling linguistic torrent, with each unreliable narrator lingering on new details, new acts of depravity or brutality, Melchor extracts some tiny shred of humanity from these characters—inners whom most people would write off as irredeemable—forming a lasting portrait of a damned Mexican village.

Concert | Polka, Square Dances, Middle Eastern Hand Drumming, and More


Called "a breath of fresh air, an incentive to dance" (Le Monde), the multigenerational and multicultural Good Vibes Explosion is a new creation by New York's "ebullient clarinet wizard" David Krakauer (TimeOut NY) and South African multi-instrumentalist, composer, and producer Kathleen Tagg. Traditional roots music from around the world comes charging into a 21st-century fusion, melding klezmer, calypso, polka, square dances, and the hora with Middle Eastern hand drumming, electronic beats, and so much more.

Film | Rustin (2023): Biographical Drama Directed by 5-Time Tony Winner


Rustin tells the story of Bayard Rustin, the civil rights activist and organizer behind the 1963 March on Washington. He challenged authority, never apologized for who he was, what he believed, or who he desired. And he did not back down. The film highlights his pivotal role in the civil rights movement. It shows how Rustin's strategic vision and tireless dedication helped shape the march and advance the fight for equality, while also exploring his personal struggles and the complexities of his identity. Directed by five-time Tony Award winner George C. Wolfe and starring Emmy Award winner Colman Domingo. Duration: 1h 38m Rated PG-13
