<p>White-tail deer are herbivores, which means they eat plants.&nbsp;While there are no plant species that are truly deer-proof, deer do develop preferences and will ignore many types of plants in their grazing patterns.&nbsp;Planting with a high diversity of plant species will minimize the impact that any deer will have&nbsp; in your garden.</p><p>The gardens around the Conference House Visitors&#39; Center feature plants that deer are less likely to eat.&nbsp;See which plants may work for your home!</p><p>WildlifeNYC is a campaign launched by the City of New York to increase public awareness about urban wildlife, and how humans can live harmoniously with the animals who also call the Big Apple home.</p>

<p class="alert alert-error">Please note: this event has been cancelled. Due to Election.</p><p>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&nbsp;City limits. Little did he know that, more than 200 years later, his home&nbsp;would be serving&nbsp;as the official residence of the First Family of New York City&mdash;a place where history is made, not merely recorded.</p><p>As a historic house museum run by NYC Parks, sitting on&nbsp;11 acres of grounds now known as&nbsp;Carl Schurz Park, Gracie Mansion has served as the home of 10 mayors, beginning first with Mayor&nbsp;Fiorello H. La Guardia in 1942.&nbsp;Today, Gracie Mansion is occupied by the de Blasio family, which has opened its&nbsp;doors in the spirit of the administration&#39;s motto: one city, rising together.</p><p>In celebration of our&nbsp;75th Anniversary of Gracie being a mayoral residence, Mayor de Blasio and First Lady Chirlane McCray have introduced a new art&nbsp;installation, titled&nbsp;<em>New York&nbsp;1942</em>. This is the second in a series of installations envisioning New York through the framework of Gracie Mansion as it has been inhabited over time. It includes artwork, documents and objects from the period that the La Guardias lived in Gracie, shown together to tell a more complete story of the overall historic context as perceived from diverse perspectives.</p><p>To RSVP for tour, please visit&nbsp;<a href="http://on.nyc.gov/gracietour">on.nyc.gov/gracietour</a>.&nbsp;</p><p>Currently, Gracie Mansion is not offering group tours.&nbsp;If you are part of a private organization that would like to tour the house, please email your request, including the size of group, your name and the purpose of a tour, to&nbsp;<a href="mailto:gracieinfo@cityhall.nyc.gov">gracieinfo@cityhall.nyc.gov</a>&nbsp;and we will work to add you to one of the currently scheduled tours.</p><p>Photo ID required for entrance. No photography permitted in the interior. At the present time, tours are available in English only. Please plan to arrive at least five minutes in advance.</p>

Featuring fifteen artists,&nbsp;<em>EAF14</em>&nbsp;is a survey of the compelling and diverse state of sculpture today.</p><p>Each&nbsp;<em>EAF14</em>&nbsp;artist has engaged with the larger narrative of public space in a dynamic and daring way, building upon Socrates Sculpture Park&rsquo;s goal to present socially aware, inspiring art in the public realm.&nbsp;<em>EAF14</em>&nbsp;artists were selected through a highly&nbsp;competitive process that attracted a broad field of nearly 300 candidates, reviewed by the park&rsquo;s curatorial advisors Anne Barlow&nbsp;(Executive Director, Art in General) and&nbsp;Joe Sheftel&nbsp;(Joe Sheftel Gallery, New York). Selected&nbsp;<em>EAF14</em>&nbsp;artists were awarded a 2014 Emerging Artist Fellowship, including 24/7 access to the park&rsquo;s outdoor studio and facilities, as well as the financial, technical, and curatorial support to realize his or her most ambitious work possible.</p><p>Image credit:&nbsp;Jordan Griska. <em>Dolos</em>. 2014 Emerging Artist Fellowship Exhibition, Socrates Sculpture Park (Queens, 2014).

Description
<p>There will be a pre-screening performance at 7:00 p.m. The film begins at sundown.</p><p><strong>Monsoon Wedding (India)</strong><br />Directed by Mira Nair; 2001, 113 mins.<br /><em>Programmed by Film Forum.</em><br />A buoyant comedy of an Indian family preparing for a flamboyant (arranged) marriage,&nbsp;Monsoon Wedding&nbsp;finds the frenzied upper-middle-class Vernas of Delhi facing impending disaster. Wedding costs are spiraling out of control. The bride-to-be, who barely knows the groom, pursues a fling with her talk-show-host ex. Far-flung relatives descend on the family to further complicate matters. And family secrets threaten to burst into the open on the big day. Filmmaker Mira Nair (Salaam Bombay!,&nbsp;Mississippi Masala) infuses this sprawling, uproarious story with humor, sensitivity and a clear-eyed take on the clash between tradition and modernity &ndash; brightened by a joyous soundtrack. Named the best movie romance of the 21st century by IndieWire. &ldquo;Nair&rsquo;s stereotype-shattering movie &mdash; like the polymorphous culture it illuminates &mdash; borrows from Bollywood, Hollywood and cinema verit&eacute;, and comes up with something exuberantly its own.&rdquo; &ndash; David Ansen,&nbsp;Newsweek</p><p><strong>Limited VIP seating is available for&nbsp;Cinema Stars!&nbsp;contributors. Please visit&nbsp;<a href="http://socratessculpturepark.org/participate/cinemastars/">Socrates Sculpture Park&#39;s website</a>&nbsp;to make your donation or find out more.</strong></p>

Description
<p> <em>Closely Knit: A Textile Analysis of Animals</em> by Ruth Marshall brings attention to illegal wildlife trade and species loss in a way that unites a widened audience of scientists, art enthusiasts and the general public. Her life-size, knitted textile pelts of tigers, leopards, coral snakes and Australian marsupials exemplify how artisan goods have the potential to have higher commercial value than poached skins on the black market. Her textiles reinforce the ideology that support for conservation and culture is a more sustainable, viable and lucrative endeavor than the illegal wildlife trade.&nbsp;<br /> <br /> She has conducted research at the American Museum of Natural History, Melbourne Museum and the Berlin Zoo. For <em>Closely Knit</em>, Marshall studied Askai, Central Park Zoo&rsquo;s six-year-old male snow leopard and created a new knitted work based on his distinctive coat. &nbsp;The exhibition is staged in the historic Arsenal building, which housed a menagerie of gifted animals on the basement level from 1859 to 1871, and was the first home of the American Museum of Natural History from 1869 to 1877 before it moved to its current home on Manhattan&rsquo;s West Side.</p>
