SUMMARY:Shaunna J. Edwards and Alyson Richman Present The Thread Collectors
DESCRIPTION:Reading. Registration required. 1863: In a small Creole cottage in New Orleans\, an ingenious young Black woman named Stella embroiders intricate maps on repurposed cloth to help enslaved men flee and join the Union Army. Bound to a man who would kill her if he knew of her clandestine activities\, Stella has to hide not only her efforts but her love for William\, a Black soldier and a brilliant musician. Meanwhile\, in New York City\, a Jewish woman stitches a quilt for her husband\, who is stationed in Louisiana with the Union Army. Between abolitionist meetings\, Lily rolls bandages and crafts quilts with her sewing circle for other soldiers\, too\, hoping for their safe return home. But when months go by without word from her husband\, Lily resolves to make the perilous journey South to search for him. As these two women risk everything for love and freedom during the brutal Civil War\, their paths converge in New Orleans\, where an unexpected encounter leads them to discover that even the most delicate threads have the capacity to save us. Loosely inspired by the authors’ family histories\, this stunning novel will stay with readers for a long time.

SUMMARY:Susan Coll Presents Bookish People\, in conversation with Julie Klam
DESCRIPTION:Reading. A perfect storm of comedic proportions erupts in a DC bookstore over the course of one soggy summer week–narrated by two very different women and punctuated by political turmoil\, a celestial event\, and a perpetually broken vacuum cleaner.

SUMMARY:Modern Jewish Sounds Concert: Daniel Kahn
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-born\, Berlin-based troubadour Daniel Kahn’s music mixes Yiddish\, English\, Russian\, and German with a distinctly punk and folk flavor. The Museum’s Modern Jewish Sounds concert series welcomes Kahn to the stage along with his dear friends Jake Shulman-Ment\, Sarah Gordon\, Lorin Sklamberg\, and other comrades for an intimate evening of new and old songs that cross the borders of languages\, cultures\, generations\, and worlds. Drawing on the repertoire of his cult cabaret band the Painted Bird as well as his most recent solo album word beggar\, his music also engages with such bards as Gebertig\, Okudzhava\, Dylan\, and Cohen. Experience Daniel Kahn’s return to the US with his bag full of broken ballads\, crooked klezmer\, prison laments\, revolutionary hymns\, and apocalyptic blues.
