<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;New York 1942. 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 a tour, please visit&nbsp;on.nyc.gov/gracietour.&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;gracieinfo@cityhall.nyc.gov&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>

Gracie Mansion Conservancy presents New York 1942. Our newest installation marking the 75th Anniversary of Gracie Mansion as the official mayoral residence.

Exhibition by Ruth Marshall: Closely Knit: A Textile Analysis of Animals

2014-05-29T00:00:00.000

09:00

17:00

<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>

<p>This exhibit of clay castings by Susan Stair forms portraits in trees used by the Lenape Indians for food and medicine.

Capturing the Bronx Exhibition

2018-07-25T00:00:00.000

09:00

17:00

<p>The Bronx is both a place and a collection of metaphors, a peninsula attached to the mainland in a city of islands. In many ways, it is defined by its diversities&mdash;social, demographic, geographic and temporal. Hospitals, museums, universities, formal gardens, beaches, parks, and historical sites are prominent features of the landscape. Massive public housing developments, neighborhoods of six-story apartment buildings and private homes, and bucolic landscapes surrounding long-standing estates can be found within the borders of the Bronx.</p><p>The photographers represented in this exhibit are connected to the Bronx by birth, residency, work, or affinity. Each has a unique history, a particular point of view, and an evolving personal story. Who we are as individuals and as a group is represented in this exhibit. We are creating a photographic archive of the Bronx. The Bronx Photographers Collaborative hopes these images speak to, inform, provoke, and inspire you to join us in documenting, celebrating, and advocating for the borough that means so much to us and has contributed so much to who we are.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

The VW Dome 2, presented by MoMA, is a temporary structure located at the Beach 94th Street parking lot.

<p> Rockaway Help will be hosting a community workshop at the MoMA VW Dome to brainstorm around what web based tools and apps they wished existed for emergency preparedness and response. This will be a hands-on session where participants will be sketching, talking and thinking through design and coastal living problems and work to see if we can collaboratively come up with concrete solutions through technology.</p><p> We need community leaders to help us figure out what kinds of problems we had before and after Sandy - problems that we can solve using technology. Once we identify the problems, our hacking teams will &nbsp;work with community members to build the solutions.</p>

Join Rockaway Help for a community workshop designing web-based tools for emergency preparedness and response.

The Randall&rsquo;s Island Park Alliance, The Bronx Museum of the Arts, and Made Event are pleased to present FLOW, the annual summer art exhibit along the shoreline at Randall&rsquo;s Island Park in New York City. FLOW is aimed at fostering appreciation of the shoreline through artistic expression, while calling visitors to interact with and care for the Park&rsquo;s island environment. Each year, FLOW features five site specific projects by participants in the Bronx Museum&rsquo;s Artists in the Marketplace (AIM) program for emerging artists.<br /><p> Randall&rsquo;s Island Park is a unique and remarkable waterfront resource, located in the East River with views of the Queens, Bronx and Manhattan shorelines. New waterfront pathways run along the 4.5-mile shoreline, which includes almost 9 acres of restored salt marsh and freshwater wetlands. The Park also offers a track &amp; field stadium, a golf center, a 20-court tennis center and dozens of new playing fields, as well as the Harlem River Event Site, home of Made Event&rsquo;s Electric Zoo, a three-day Labor Day weekend concert event at Randall&rsquo;s Island which draws local and international DJ artists and audience.</p><p> FLOW.13 &ndash; this year&#39;s third annual exhibition &ndash; will be open to the public every day from June-November, and will feature five new site-specific installations, all reflecting and encouraging interaction with the Park&rsquo;s history and environment. The five installations are located along the southern shoreline of Randall&#39;s Island Park.</p><p> FLOW is made possible through support from Made Event, proud producers of The Electric Zoo Festival, NYC&rsquo;s largest electronic dance music festival, held annually at Randall&rsquo;s Island Park.</p><p> The FLOW exhibitions express the confluence of art, music and environment at Randall&rsquo;s Island Park, in the midst of one of the world&rsquo;s greatest cities.</p>

The Randall's Island Park Alliance, BxMA, and Made Event are pleased to present FLOW, the annual summer art exhibit along the shoreline at Randall's Island Park.
