SUMMARY:Transforming Moments: A Conversation With Diane Von Furstenberg
DESCRIPTION:Before she was an international fashion icon and a member of the TIME 100\, Diane von Furstenberg was a young girl growing up with parents who had just survived the Holocaust. Her father\, originally from Moldova\, escaped the Nazis in Switzerland. Her mother\, originally from Greece\, fought the Nazis as a member of the resistance until she was captured and sent to Auschwitz. Join the Museum for a conversation with von Furstenberg about her identity as the daughter of survivors and how it has informed her remarkable career at the helm of one of the world’s most recognizable brands. She will be in conversation with Dr. Eva Fogelman\, renowned psychologist and author of the Pulitzer Prize-nominated book Conscience and Courage: Rescuers of Jews During the Holocaust.

SUMMARY:Shall Make\, Shall Be: The Bill of Rights at Play
DESCRIPTION:Presentation of a curatorial project which invited 10 independent artists and game designers to create playable artworks themed around the individual amendments in the Bill of Rights\, drawing on their effects\, interpretations\, and legal meanings in U.S. culture. On September 25\, 1789\, 12 Amendments to the still fledgling U.S. Constitution were enacted at Federal Hall by the first Congress. Sent to the States for ratification\, ten would be approved and become known as the Bill of Rights. Stewarded by Representative James Madison\, this codification of individual rights\, was an integral compromise for the unification of the United States. Alongside this history\, is the recognition and duty to communicate that this exhibit sits on Lenapehoking: a land stolen from the Indigenous Lenape peoples who continue to live in New York City and beyond. These works are intended to be understood as critical games\, using the mechanisms of play to interrogate\, critique\, and inform common understanding of civil liberties in the 21st Century.

SUMMARY:Making Structures Strong: The Significance of Domes!

SUMMARY:Hester Street Fair Ice Cream Social
DESCRIPTION:The best ice cream vendors from across the five boroughs bring us their finest flavors to compete for the chance to claim this year’s acclaimed ‘Audience Award’. The Social’s reputation is pretty darn good when you consider that thousands of people have shown up years past— including Leo DiCaprio and his mom— but don’t be intimidated\, as all it takes to vote is $10 which gives you one vote and a 2oz sample of each vendors’ signature flavor for the day. The votes will be tallied at 4:30pm and a winner announced at 5 pm. The fate of NYC’s ice cream obsession is in your hands!

SUMMARY:Jin Yong: The Lord of the Swords
DESCRIPTION:One of the most widely read 20th-century writers\, Jin Yong enjoys enormous popularity in the Chinese-speaking world with the panoramic fictional universes he created through his novels. He modernized and elevated the wuxia genre to a new height by blending in poetry\, history and fantasy\, and his epic novels inspired countless film\, television and video game adaptations. His creations have been compared to J. R. R. Tolkien’s “The Lord of the Rings”. By the time of his death in 2018\, he was the best-selling Chinese author with over 100 million copies of his books sold worldwide. The Renwen Society presents a lecture on July 9 on the literary giant by Prof. Chen Hong\, a scholar on Jin Yong\, with whom he had also maintained a close personal friendship. At the lecture\, Prof. Chen will explore Jin Yong’s place in Chinese literature\, unique features of his novels as well as his interactions and exchanges with the master.
