82nd Street on the Hudson River Greenway | Virtual Artist Talk with Joshua Goode Fascinated by deliberate historical manipulations, Joshua Goode researches and develops a satirical history in an effort to expose the malleability of our past, present and future.

Registrants will receive a zoom link 24 hours before the event begins. Saturday, August 21, 6:30pm

Classic Playground at 75th Street on the Waterfront | Four Currents was conceived as a convergence of the energies of its location in Riverside Park: the powerful flow of the river, the urban surroundings, the radiant energy of the sun, and the wind that bends the trees. She worked together with her partner, Gary Fredriksen to create a work that harmonizes with the environment that surrounds it. At this event, Wendy Letven hosts an artist talk, Q&A and interactive workshop at the site of the sculpture. Saturday, August 28, 2pm
