Date: Tuesday, June 24th | Time: 7:00pm–9:00pm | Free with Registration
Doors open at 6:30pm. The Muse begins at 7:00pm in the NoMAA Gallery.
Join us for The Muse: Hair Stories, with special guest speaker Dr. Niria E. Leyva-Gutiérrez, Executive Director of the Northern Manhattan Arts Alliance (NoMAA). In conjunction with NoMAA’s 16th annual Women in the Heights Exhibition, Hair: Untangling Identity, The Muse presents Hair Stories. Through art, reflection, and the sharing of personal stories and experience, we will explore how hair identifies & informs our lives — for better or worse!
The Muse is a monthly program dedicated to celebrating inspiration, the arts, and community. It brings together open-minded artists and art lovers to explore the many ways inspiration, or The Muse, elevates our daily lives. Through shared human experiences, creative expression, and a deep love for the arts, we reflect on life’s biggest questions, uncovering new meaning in the world around us.
This event is free with registration, and light refreshments will be provided. All are welcome as we give back to those who have given us so much.
Event Schedule:
Join Magpie Duo in our first summer Sunset Concert and Album Pre-Release Show at Our Saviour’s Atonement (178 Bennett Avenue) on Saturday, June 7 at 4pm! We will perform a set of contemplative and meditative works, including a selection from our upcoming album, as the sun begins to dim over the uptown landscape.
We are a violin + piano group that develops community around contemporary music in the neighborhoods of New York City by performing programs that intertwine music from across generational and cultural lines. Named after the bird long known in Western folklore for its obsessive and curious trinket-collecting, our concerts draw from a wide array of stylistic periods, weaving together works from disparate eras of music making while continuously circling back to the contemporary form of our craft.
Join us for free live concerts every Monday in June, as part of the Uptown Arts Stroll — from June 2nd to 30th, celebrate Uptown’s vibrant music scene all month long!
