SUMMARY:“Cult Classic” with Sloane Crosley
DESCRIPTION:One night in New York City’s Chinatown\, a woman is at a work reunion dinner when she excuses herself to buy a pack of cigarettes. On her way back\, she runs into a former boyfriend. And then another. And… another. What would normally pass for coincidence becomes something far stranger as our heroine\, the recently engaged Lola\, must contend with a great many of her relationships. Memories of the past swirl and converge in ways both comic and eerie\, as Lola is forced to decide if she will surrender herself to the conspiring of one very contemporary cult. In her book\, Cult Classic\, Sloane Crosley spins a wry literary fantasy that is equal parts page-turner and poignant portrayal of alienation. Sip a drink and enjoy views of New York Harbor while listening to Crosley read from and discuss her fantastic book.

SUMMARY:A New Founding Figure
DESCRIPTION:Join the Seaport Museum and historian and author Claire Bellerjeau for a captivating illustrated presentation that delves into the discovery of a new founding figure named Elizabeth\, known as “Liss.” Through engaging storytelling and visuals\, we will embark on a journey to explore Liss’s remarkable story\, shedding light on her enslavement by the Townsend family of Oyster Bay\, New York\, and her subsequent escape with the British forces. We will then follow her path as she faces re-enslavement in Manhattan and later Charleston. Liss’s complex struggle for freedom offers us a unique perspective on the country’s founding era\, as seen through the eyes of an enslaved Black woman yearning for liberty in a nation grappling with its own fight for independence.
