SUMMARY:Thursday is the New Friday: The Case for the Four Day Workweek
DESCRIPTION:Even before the pandemic gripped the world\, we were a nation suffering from unprecedented levels of stress and burnout. Now\, nearly a year into our reworked lives — with remote work\, childcare duties and nearly every other aspect of our daily routine completely upended — the stress of trying to balance our professional and personal lives is at an all-time high. But according to psychologist Joe Sanok\, there is another way. In his new book\, Thursday is the New Friday: How to Work Fewer Hours\, Make More Money and Spend Time Doing What You Want\, he argues that the traditional five-day workweek\, with its deep\, historical roots and strong reinforcement from the bygone industrial era\, is no longer serving us well.

SUMMARY:Wallenberg: A Musical Tribute
DESCRIPTION:WALLENBERG\, an epic new musical with book and lyrics by the 2006 Kleban Award-winning team of Laurence Holzman and Felicia Needleman and music by Benjamin Rosenbluth\, brings the incredible true story of Raoul Wallenberg\, one of the greatest unsung heroes of the 20th century\, vividly to life. In July 1944\, the 32-year-old Wallenberg\, a businessman from Stockholm\, left the safety of neutral Sweden on an American-sponsored mission to Nazi-occupied Hungary. Between face-offs with the notorious Adolf Eichmann and secret dealings with the wife of one of Hungary’s most prominent fascist leaders\, Wallenberg saved over 100\,000 lives—more than were rescued by any other individual during the Holocaust. Join the Museum for an evening with the creators and actors behind WALLENBERG\, who will explore the Wallenberg story and perform a set of exhilarating and richly melodic songs from the musical’s score.

SUMMARY:Herstory of the Universe
DESCRIPTION:Conceived\, directed and choreographed by Richard Move\, and commissioned by The Trust for Governors Island\, Herstory of the Universe leads visitors on a journey across Governors Island—from the ancient trees of Nolan Park to the secluded lawns of Hammock Grove and the dramatic topography of the Hills—through a series of six site-specific dance performances. Each performance is inspired by\, and in conversation with\, its unique site\, including the ecosystems\, architectures\, materials and species that dwell within. From the abstract to the fantastical\, the works embody various biological and natural processes in a kind of biomimicry—telling the stories of Governors Island through a series of kinetic\, strikingly costumed dance installations.

SUMMARY:‘Til Kingdom Come
DESCRIPTION:Millions of American Evangelicals are praying for the State of Israel. Among them are the Binghams\, a dynasty of Kentucky pastors\, and their Evangelical congregants in an impoverished coal mining town. They donate to pro-Israel philanthropic organizations because they fervently believe that Jews are crucial to Jesus’s return. The 2020 documentary ‘Til Kingdom Come (76 minutes\, English\, no subtitles) traces this unusual relationship between American Evangelicals and Israel. Director Maya Zinshtein follows the connection from rural Kentucky to the halls of government in Washington\, exposing a stunning backstory where financial\, political\, and messianic motivations intersect with an apocalyptic worldview that is reshaping American foreign policy toward the Middle East.

SUMMARY:Stories Survive: Fania Wedro
DESCRIPTION:Fania Wedro was born Fania Hellman in Koretz\, Poland on August 25\, 1927. When she was fourteen years old\, the Nazis took away her father and the other men living in the village. Fania then spent six months in a work ghetto in Koretz\, where she escaped two mass killings by the Nazis. After escaping the second mass killing\, she lived in hiding in the forest for eighteen months. After being liberated by the Russians in 1944\, Wedro was smuggled across various borders and eventually reached a displaced persons camp in Linz\, Austria. She became a teacher in the camp and met and married her husband Leo (Leib) Wedro. In 1948\, the couple immigrated to Canada and became successful business owners. Join the Museum for a program exploring Fania’s experiences during the Holocaust\, and her efforts to bring attention to the massacre of Jewish villagers in Eastern Europe. She will be interviewed by the Museum’s Public Programs Coordinator Sydney Yaeger.

SUMMARY:Herstory of the Universe
DESCRIPTION:Conceived\, directed and choreographed by Richard Move\, and commissioned by The Trust for Governors Island\, Herstory of the Universe leads visitors on a journey across Governors Island—from the ancient trees of Nolan Park to the secluded lawns of Hammock Grove and the dramatic topography of the Hills—through a series of six site-specific dance performances. Each performance is inspired by\, and in conversation with\, its unique site\, including the ecosystems\, architectures\, materials and species that dwell within. From the abstract to the fantastical\, the works embody various biological and natural processes in a kind of biomimicry—telling the stories of Governors Island through a series of kinetic\, strikingly costumed dance installations.

SUMMARY:The Sign Painter
DESCRIPTION:Ansis earns his living as a sign painter\, a seemingly innocent occupation. His craft is needed during every regime—the authoritarian Thirties\, the Communism that followed\, and Nazism. Ansis is compelled to cooperate. He paints the signs of the city green\, later replaced by red\, and finally brown. But then he gets caught up in a love triangle. While being in love with a Jewish girl named Zisla\, whom he cannot marry for religious and social reasons\, he falls for a Latvian girl\, who quickly captures his heart. Historical events turn the perspective of relationships upside down as Zisla\, the daughter of a rich merchant\, turns into a class enemy—a communist. Ansis’s relationship with both women becomes explosive after Zisla falls victim to Nazi persecution. Follow Ansis’ journey in The Sign Painter (2021\, Latvian with English subtitles)\, a new film from Latvian director Viesturs Kairišs.
