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:Apollonia Visits
DESCRIPTION:For centuries\, schooners carrying goods down the Hudson River from upstate docked at South Street Seaport\, to distribute their cargo to local markets or to transfer their cargo onto ocean-bound ships to more distant destinations. This trade\, and the industries it supported\, from banking to warehousing to printing\, helped make New York City into a global commercial and then cultural capital. Apollonia is the Hudson Valley’s carbon-neutral\, wind-powered merchant vessel that harkens back to these earlier times. Order a monthly Boat Box subscription for sustainable sail freight delivery of goods sourced from local shipping partners\, from maple syrup to hot sauce to soap\, and pick it up on Pier 16. Or just come and chat with the crew.

SUMMARY:Open House New York at the Wavertree
DESCRIPTION:Join the South Street Seaport Museum for a special behind-the-scenes tour of 1885 tall ship Wavertree. The 137-year-old Wavertree\, built of riveted wrought iron\, is an archetype of the sailing ships of the latter half of the 19th century that\, during the “age of sail\,” lined South Street by the dozens\, creating a forest of masts from the Battery to the Brooklyn Bridge. Seaport Museum staff and crew will take you to places around the ship not typically accessible to the general public. Guests will get a glimpse at how the historic fleet is maintained\, see “secret” nooks and crannies\, and get immersed in history while walking the entire length of Wavertree’s massive cargo hold. Also at 2pm and 4pm.

SUMMARY:Virtual Walking Tour: Jewish Freiburg
DESCRIPTION:In this livestreamed walking tour\, discover the Jewish heritage of Freiburg\, Germany. Jews have lived in Freiburg since the thirteenth century\, suffering imprisonment and murder during the Black Death and a century of discrimination and expulsion. Learn about what happened when Jews officially returned to the city in the early seventeenth century and see the synagogue that was consecrated in 1885 following the Baden emancipation law of 1862. Our guide will also tell us the story of Hans Adolf Krebs\, a Jewish faculty member at Freiburg University who was dismissed along with the other Jewish faculty members after the Nazis’ rise to power and went on to win the Nobel Prize for medicine in 1953. We will also learn about the fate of the Jewish community during the Holocaust and how the community has begun to rebuild in the years since.

SUMMARY:Book of Ruth\, Featuring the Met Opera Chorus Artists: A Story of Courage\, Resilience\, and Hope
DESCRIPTION:The Museum of Jewish Heritage is pleased to partner with the Met Opera Chorus Artists to present a memoir through music. In this special concert\, we will learn about Holocaust Survivor Ruth Wachner Pagirsky. Alongside beautiful music\, Ruth’s daughter and Museum Trustee Regina Skyer will share how her mother met hatred with humanity in an incredible story of courage\, resilience\, and hope. Born in Berlin\, Germany\, in 1926\, Ruth was only 13 years old when the war started in 1939. Fleeing first to the Polish forests\, and then a labor camp\, Ruth eventually obtained false identification papers that allowed her to hide in the open as a Polish Catholic. For three years\, Ruth posed as a mute\, hiding her German accented Polish – and her Jewish identity – until she was liberated in 1945. From Partisans Song to Fiddler on the Roof to Madame Butterfly and more\, Met Opera Chorus Artists will bring Ruth’s incredible story – and love for music – to the Museum of Jewish Heritage. It is fitting to tell Ruth’s story here at the Museum\, for she spent the majority of her life as a fierce advocate for Holocaust education and served as a member of our Speakers Bureau. Proceeds from this event will benefit Ruth’s final project: the Museum’s first children’s exhibition\, Courage to Act.

SUMMARY:Residential Rising\, Lower Manhattan Since 9/11
DESCRIPTION:In the 21 years since 9/11\, lower Manhattan has more than doubled its residential population\, from nearly 40\,000 to more than 82\,000. Downtown’s evolution into a mixed residential neighborhood – which was initiated by the City in the mid-1990s\, but catastrophically interrupted in 2001\, as well as by the financial crisis of 2008 and Superstorm Sandy in 2012 – has been a story as much about the conversion of older office buildings into apartments as about new construction. Led by Museum Director Carol Willis\, the walking tour will cover blocks from City Hall Park\, a perfect vantage to admire the new stand-out residential towers\, and wind south through the Financial District to Wall Street\, where Art Deco office buildings have been converted to hundreds of small rental apartments with lavish amenity spaces. Along the way\, we will discuss the zoning changes\, financing incentives\, and historic preservation and development strategies that have produced a new neighborhood. Tour duration is around 60 minutes. The tour will meet at 1pm in the public plaza of 30 Park Place\, midblock on Park Place between Broadway and Church St. The last stop of the tour will be at Wall Street and Broadway.
