Future Queens: Identity, Architecture & Accountable Anti-Racist Development | June 26
All are invited to this live podcast and public discussion on the demographic details behind the “most diverse urban area in the world,” how these identities manifest in the borough’s architecture, and how we might design for a future neighborhood beyond white supremacy and towards accountable development.
Spaces of Justice: Rikers - An American Jail | June 27
Open House New York invites you to a screening of excerpts from the documentary “Rikers: An American Jail”, an award-winning film by Bill Moyers that lets the men and women who have experienced Rikers tell their stories. Interspersed with the excerpts will be discussion by invited guests. RSVP required. Space is limited.
The Landfill Project | Open now until September 30
The Landfill Project is an exhibit at the Rockaway Institute for a Sustainable Environment that explores the site and strategies to create and use it for positive impact for Edgemere. Defining the constraints, opportunities and expressions of the site’s unique features helps to imagine what this land could become in the future.
