SUMMARY:Debut Novel 101
DESCRIPTION:McNally Jackson’s Publishing 101 series aims to demystify the publishing process through conversations with industry professionals who have seen it all. For our second event\, we welcome Laura McGrath\, Randy Winston\, and Isaac Fitzgerald to discuss all things “debut novel” — from building your byline and securing a publisher to promoting your book and “breaking out.” These days\, it can seem like debut novels are make-it-or-break-it — the projects against which all subsequent novels will be measured. Will you earn out your advance? Will your book receive coverage in national newspapers? Will mass retailers carry your book? All of these things are outside an author’s control\, but there are a few key steps you can take to boost your debut — and to make your first experience in publishing a positive one.

SUMMARY:Path to Liberty: The Emergence of a Nation
DESCRIPTION:Opening day of a new exhibition. Fraunces Tavern was a witness to history throughout the Revolutionary War Era. Among the many historic events that took place there\, Fraunces Tavern served as a meeting place for the Sons of Liberty\, a site for trials that were part of a process that led to the emancipation of thousands of Black Loyalists\, and the setting for Washington’s farewell to his officers. Two hundred fifty years later\, Fraunces Tavern Museum will honor this history with a new special exhibition: Path to Liberty: The Emergence of a Nation. Commemorating the United States Semiquincentennial\, Path to Liberty will be a chronological\, multi-year exhibition telling the history of the American Revolution from 1775 to 1783\, with a distinctive focus on what occurred in New York State and the surrounding areas.

SUMMARY:The Last Musician of Auschwitz
DESCRIPTION:In honor of Yom HaShoah\, Central Synagogue and the Museum of Jewish Heritage are proud to present a New York screening of The Last Musician of Auschwitz\, a new documentary from the BBC\, in collaboration with the Museum of Jewish Heritage – a Living Memorial to the Holocaust. The compelling documentary\, from director Toby Trackman\, explores the legacy of music at Auschwitz\, told through testimonies of survivors and victims who were forced to create and play music while they were in the concentration camp. Honoring their contributions by including new interpretations of the music created there\, the film also pays tribute to the horrors\, loss\, and dehumanization experienced at Auschwitz and honors the lives of the dwindling number of survivors left to share their stories.
