SUMMARY:Building a Better World - MLK No School Day Camp
DESCRIPTION:MLK had a dream to make the world a better place. In today's camp\, we will focus on Building a Better World – through Robotics! Campers are challenged to think critically about the world around them. As students identify problems\, they will think creatively about how they can use technology to inspire change. Through a series of games\, LEGO mosaics\, engineering challenges\, and lots of laughs\, students will end the day with a new Robotic that aims to make the world a better place. We all have a dream – What's Yours? \nYour child will learn the fundamentals of programming while navigating through programming instructions to make their inventions come alive. Students will work in groups to create robotic models that help to better the world. When building without instructions\, children are challenged to think creatively both on a large and small scale. As they brainstorm the purpose of their model and troubleshoot building issues\, they will practice crucial problem-solving and critical thinking skills.

SUMMARY:Bitches Books and Breakfast feat. Pretty Deadly

SUMMARY:SculptureCenter Winter Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an opening reception celebrating R.I.P. Germain: Avangarda\,  In Practice: Claudia Pagès\, and Small World Cinema. \nR.I.P. Germain: Avangarda\nJan 25–Mar 25\, 2024 \nSculptureCenter is pleased to present the first exhibition in the United States of R.I.P. Germain. UK-based\, R.I.P. Germain investigates how structures of exclusion lead to the creation of para-institutional spaces\, practices\, and modes of sociality and solidarity. His practice explores how a lack of access to financial\, legal\, and other forms of state-sanctioned resources foment support systems that respond to the needs of underserved and excluded communities. \nIn New York\, R.I.P. Germain will present a series of newly commissioned sculptures in the guise of facades and storefronts. R.I.P. Germain’s presentation will expand his recent explorations of “false fronts”– or spaces that present themselves in one way but function in another. Offering an appearance of banality\, they frequently mask an illegal operation. Liminal and precarious spaces of trade\, the fronts also run as spaces of care and sociality. These engineered facsimiles represent amalgams of frontages for “baggy spaces” (as coined by the artist and the activist-curator Helen Starr)\, places “found in every city\, governed by their own logics — market and moral\, they function as ways to serve a community need that otherwise remains unmet.” These conditions generate specified ways to access and operate within them that cut across typical social hierarchies and stratification. In hyperlocal terms that interrogate what it means to be “in the know\,” R.I.P. Germain’s work asks whether such semi-secrecy produces community\, reproduces the destructive dynamics of the outside world\, or allows for other systems of sociality and value to develop. \nIn Practice: Claudia Pagès\nJan 25–Feb 19\, 2024 \nClaudia Pagès’s work circulates word\, body\, music\, and movement in multiple directions\, tracing the continuity of logistics systems (like shipping and transport) alongside legal language and proceedings in hypnotic video installations. Pagès refers to the subjects of her work as “containment architectures\,” upholding power through the flow of goods and capital. Pagès’s new work for SculptureCenter is a video installation sited between two locations that mark the “birth of bureaucracy” – ancient caves tallied with trade markers and the paper's entrance to Europe through the Silk Route. \nSmall World Cinema\nJan 25–Mar 25\, 2024\nIn collaboration with Taipei Fine Arts Museum\, SculptureCenter welcomes Small World Cinema\, a presentation of moving image works from the Taipei Biennial 2023 – Small World\, to New York City. \n“Small World\,” the theme of the 13th edition of the Taipei Biennial\, suggests both a promise of greater control over one’s own life\, and a threat of isolation from a larger community. As the curators suggest\, our world can become smaller as we grow closer to one another\, but also as we grow apart\, and Taipei Biennial 2023 – Small World takes place within such a suspended state. \nDivided into four programs and spread across SculptureCenter’s lower level galleries\, Small World Cinema includes works made between 1981 and 2023 by Tekla Aslanishvili; Yin-Ju Chen; Samia Halaby; Li Yi-Fan; Artemio Narro; Ipeh Nur; Ellen Pau; Giorgi Gago Gagoshidze; Jen Liu; Jumana Manna; Bahar Noorizadeh in collaboration with Rudá Babau and Waste Paper Opera (Klara Kofen\, James Oldham\, Gary Zhexi Zhang\, Anna Palmer); Oleksiy Radynski; John Smith; Su Yu-Hsin; Wang Ya-Hui; C. Spencer Yeh; and Zhou Tao (as of Jan 11). \n  \nSponsors\nGenerous support for R.I.P. Germain: Avangarda is provided by ARTNOIR and Micki Meng. Special thanks to Neon Fab Studios\, New York. \nIn Practice 2023 is made possible by the generosity of the Elaine Graham Weitzen Foundation for Fine Arts. \nIn Practice 2023 is made possible by the generosity of the Elaine Graham Weitzen Foundation for Fine Arts.
