United Palace: Happy Hour Historical Tour

Date: Wednesday, April 24th | Time: 7–8:30pm | $30 per person

Directions: Meet in the Grand Foyer at 6:45pm

Enjoy a complimentary beverage at the United Palace where you’ll explore this stunning 3,400-seat theatre, its mezzanine, grand foyer, balcony, and if you’re lucky, you’ll get to go up on stage!

The history of United Palace, Manhattan’s 4th largest theatre and now a landmarked building, began in 1930, when it was then one of five Loew’s “Wonder Theatres” across the boroughs and New Jersey. Designed by noted architect Thomas Lamb (Cort Theatre, the former Ziegfeld Theatre) with interiors overseen by decorative specialist Harold Rambusch (Waldorf Astoria, Radio City Music Hall), it was one of the region’s premier vaudeville and movie houses. Today, the United Palace hosts concerts, movies, and community events and provides spiritual and cultural programming.

Tours are capped at 40 people. Proceeds go toward maintaining the building. This event is being hosted by United Palace of Cultural Arts.

***Tour schedule is subject to change. Tours may be modified depending on events within the theatre.

Hispanic Society: Dominican Yorks at the Hispanic Society

Exhibition Title: Dominican Yorks at the Hispanic Society
Location: Hispanic Society Museum & Library

Dates: February 23 – June 30, 2024

The Hispanic Society Museum & Library inaugurates Arte en el Alto Manhattan with Dominican Yorks at the Hispanic Society featuring three Dominican-born co-curators exhibiting works created in artistic dialog with HSM&L’s collection based on their individual aesthetic approaches as well as their unique perspective as Dominican immigrants in New York. The works showcased express the complicated transnational and intercultural identity, which these artists share with over 2 million Dominican-Americans in the United States, approximately half of whom reside in the NYC Metropolitan area, particularly in the museum’s home neighborhood of Washington Heights.

Co-curators: Reynaldo García Pantaleón, Chiqui Mendoza, & Rider Ureña
