Together\, they’ll consider what the body holds onto\, what it lets go\, and how m emory and loss can continue to take shape within us. \n\n\n\nMarried to th e End of Things\n\n\n\nTime(s): 06:30–07:30pmLocation: Modern Chapel \n\ n\n\nTwo ways of dealing with an ending. \n\n\n\nAstrophysicist Matteo Can tiello spends his days with stars\, studying how they’re born\, live\, a nd eventually go out in a blaze that seeds the universe with the stuff of new stars\, planets\, and us. Death doula Maria Di Paolo is grounded here on Earth\, guiding families through the final chapter of a loved one’s l ife. They happen to be married\, which might make for interesting dinner t able conversation. In this talk and the following discussion\, the two wil l trade notes on what a dying star and a dying person actually have in com mon and what it’s like to build a life with someone who studies endings for a living\, from opposite ends of the universe. \n\n\n\nWhat Survives\n \n\n\nTime(s): 08:00–09:00pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nWha t gets carried forward changes along the way. \n\n\n\nArtists Laura Ander son Barbata\, Cinthya Santos Briones\, and Mary Ting come together to cons ider how knowledge is carried through ritual\, storytelling\, and embodied experience. Drawing from their own creative practices\, oral histories\, and work rooted in collective care\, they’ll explore how memory survives across migration\, displacement\, and cultural transformation\, and how t raditions are preserved\, adapted\, and reshaped along the way. \n\n\n\nMo rtal Matters in the Milky Way\n\n\n\nTime(s): 08:00–09:00pmLocation: Mod ern Chapel \n\n\n\nYour life\, measured against the life of a galaxy. \n\n \n\nBefore you can understand your own mortality\, it helps to understand the mortality of something much bigger. This session traces the birth\, li fe\, and eventual death of the Milky Way\, beginning at the start of the U niverse and reaching all the way to its future merger with the Andromeda g alaxy. Astronomer Kathryn Johnston\, who has spent over thirty years study ing how the motions of stars\, dark matter\, gas\, and dust shape galaxies across cosmic time\, joins composer and multi-instrumentalist Sasha Bogda nowitsch\, whose work draws on musical traditions from around the world\, for a conversation that moves between science and live sound. Together the y’ll help you leave Brooklyn behind for an hour and tune into galactic t imescales\, using words\, music\, and research to put a single human life in the context of something that took billions of years to become what it is. To learn more about Kathryn and Sasha’s collaborative work\, visit: galaxiesmusicmotion.org. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSATURDAY SCHEDULE\n\n\n\nPotenti al Ends of the Universe\n\n\n\nTime(s): 11:30am–12:30pmLocation: The Gre en-House Atrium \n\n\n\nThe biggest thing to grieve is something none of u s will live to see die. \n\n\n\nAstrophysicist and folklorist Dr. Moiya M cTier takes us to the farthest reaches of the future to consider how the u niverse might end. From the Big Crunch to the Big Rip\, she’ll unpack th e physics behind leading theories of the cosmos’s ultimate fate and the enormous timescales they ask us to imagine. Along the way\, she’ll consi der the stories we tell about cosmic endings and what our fascination with them reveals about how we understand our place in the universe. \n\n\n\nM emory and Matter: A Reading and Conversation with Edwidge Danticat\n\n\n\n Time(s): 01:00–02:00pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nSome stor ies are too heavy to carry alone. \n\n\n\nAcclaimed author Edwidge Dantic at reads from her newest novel\, Dèy\, whose title takes its name from th e Creole word for mourning. Moving between Haiti\, Miami\, and Brooklyn\, the novel follows a woman whose sense of self and family are upended by a sudden act of violence. She will be joined by LaToya Anderson\, a physicis t who studies how atoms and molecules interact at the smallest scales\, wo rk that asks how matter holds together\, breaks apart\, and reforms under pressure. Together they’ll move between the language of grief and the la nguage of matter\, drawing an unexpected parallel between how a body of wo rk is built from fragments and how the physical world does the same. \n\n\ n\nEchoes & Epitaphs\n\n\n\nTime(s): 01:00–05:00pmLocation: The Green-Ho use Classroom \n\n\n\nHow do we remember ourselves? \n\n\n\nGreen-Wood’ s Artist in Residence\, Jia Sung\, has spent years blending the stories of her ancestors\, lost loved ones\, and past versions of herself into her c reative practice. Through her art\, she explores what it means to inherit a legacy and\, one day\, create one of your own for future generations. No w\, she invites you to take part in that practice. Choose a stamp\, press it onto the page\, and let the image inspire a poem\, reflection\, or smal l work of art. Let the Cemetery’s symbols guide your imagination as you consider your own memories and legacy. \n\n\n\nOur Brain on Dying\n\n\n\nT ime(s): 02:30–03:30pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nWhat happe ns to the brain when we grieve? \n\n\n\nAstrophysicist and folklorist Dr. Moiya McTier brings together brain experts to explore the biology of grie f and dying\, and what happens in the brain and body as we encounter loss. How does grief affect the way we think\, behave\, and move through everyda y life? How do our brains adapt to the absence of someone we love? And wha t happens biologically as the body approaches the end of life? Drawing on current research\, the conversation will offer a closer look at the physic al processes behind bereavement and dying\, and how our bodies respond to experiences we often think of as purely emotional. \n\n\n\nDancing With De ath: The Science behind Movement\n\n\n\nTime(s): 04:00–05:00pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nSome truths are easier to move through than to say out loud. \n\n\n\nScientist and dancer LaToya Anderson and interd isciplinary artist Eiko Otake sit down for a fireside conversation on the intersections of art and science through the shared language of dance. Dra wing on their distinct careers\, Anderson and Otake reflect on how movemen t informs observation\, creativity\, and discovery\, tracing where scienti fic inquiry and artistic practice overlap. \n\n\n\nWhat the Stars Leave Be hind\n\n\n\nTime(s): 04:00–05:00pmLocation: The Modern Chapel \n\n\n\nSt ars die too\, and what they leave behind becomes us. \n\n\n\nEvery element in your body\, the calcium in your bones\, the iron in your blood\, was f orged inside a star that died billions of years ago. Composer and performe r Gelsey Bell\, whose opera mɔɹnɪŋ imagines what happens on Earth lon g after human history has ended\, joins astrophysicist Carrie Filion\, who studies the light of dying stars to learn what they were made of\, for a conversation about death on a scale far larger than a single life. They’ ll talk about stellar spectroscopy as a kind of cosmic autopsy\, black hol es as the most extreme ending a star can have\, and what changes when you measure a life against a timescale in the billions of years instead of the dozens. Ultimately\, the conversation turns to what a universe built from dead stars might have to teach us about endings closer to home. \n\n\n\nG rieving & Weaving\n\n\n\nTime(s): 04:00–07:00pmLocation: The Modern Chap el \n\n\n\nStitching together creativity and community. \n\n\n\nWhether y ou’ve been knitting for years or are picking up a hook or pair of needle s for the first time\, you’re invited to join us for an evening of craft ing\, conversation\, and shared resources around grief. Beginners can lear n the basics of knitting and crochet in small tutorial groups\, while expe rienced crafters are welcome to bring a project of their own and lend a ha nd to others. Feel free to bring your own yarn\, needles\, hooks\, or othe r materials. A limited selection of supplies will also be available on a f irst-come\, first-served basis. Not a knitter? Not to worry\, you can brin g whatever other crafts you are working on. From 5–6pm\, bestselling aut hor Bruce Feiler will join us for a special reading from his new book\, A Time to Gather\, which includes stories from Green-Wood’s own Grieving & Weaving program. The reading will be followed by a light reception from 6 –7pm. \n\n\n\nAshes to Ashes\, Stardust to Stardust\n\n\n\nTime(s): 05:1 5–06:15pmLocation: The Modern Chapel \n\n\n\nThe stars live dynamic live s. \n\n\n\nWhile the night sky may seem to be an unchanging tapestry\, don ’t let the quiet cosmos fool you! Stars evolve over millions to billions of years: from their births in giant clouds of gas\, through their lives extended by fusion in their cores\, up to and beyond their often-explosive deaths. Astrophysicist Dr. Jared Goldberg describes his work as “stell ar engineering\, astrophysical demolitions\, and space forensics” –   building\, modifying\, and destroying stars using supercomputer simulati ons. Goldberg and fellow researchers use these simulations to connect chan ges in starlight to physical processes deep beneath the surface\, in order to use what we do observe of the stars in nature to uncover their past\ , present\, and future. This discussion will focus on the stellar life cyc le\, centering the relationship between what we see when we look at stars \, their complex internal structures\, and their importance in shaping our shared universe.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSUNDAY SCHEDULE\n\n\n\nThe History of Science in Deathcare\n\n\n\nTime(s): 10:15–11:15am and 11:30–12:30pmLo cation: Meet at the Gothic Arch \n\n\n\nDeathcare has a history. \n\n\n\n Join us aboard the Green-Wood Trolley to trace the science and evolution o f American deathcare. We’ll visit the grave of Auguste Renouard\, often called the father of modern embalming\, then stop at the Civil War Soldier s’ Lot\, where we’ll discuss how the demands of war accelerated advanc es in and the need for embalming. From there\, we’ll discover the legacy of surgeon Dr. Valentine Mott\, whose innovations shaped nineteenth-centu ry medicine before journeying through historic Cedar Dell\, where the land scape itself reflects changing ideas about burial and remembrance. \n\n\n\ nBecoming Green-Wood \n\n\n\nTime(s): 11:00am–01:00pmLocation: Meet at the Modern Chapel \n\n\n\nBack to the earth: cremation history\, crematory science\, natural burial\, options at Green-Wood.  \n\n\n\nIn the first portion of this lively conversation\, renowned funeral director Amy Cunnin gham gives a sweeping history of cremation\, from humankind’s earliest k nown cremation in Australia over 32\,000 years ago to its impact on modern funeral practices. Next\, Gabrielle Gatto\, Green-Wood’s Manager of Pub lic Programs and a death doula\, leads a tour of the Cemetery’s cremator y retorts to explain how cremation happens today. Finally\, Theresa Wozunk and Jess Schoberl\, Green-Wood’s Memorial Counselors\, will explain eve ry possible option available to future Permanent Residents at Green-Wood\, including traditional and green burial\, cremation\, natural organic redu ction\, and the evolving world of modern disposition. They will also lead an optional walk to Cedar Dell\, the Cemetery’s designated area for natu ral burial\, so you can see what natural burial looks like right here in B rooklyn.  \n\n\n\nWhat the Corpse Can Tell Us\n\n\n\nTime(s): 11:30am–1 2:30pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nDeath isn’t just an end\; it’s a remarkable biological process. \n\n\n\nForensic entomologist Dr . Jennifer Rosati and fellow researchers explore the science of human deco mposition\, from the first changes in the body to its eventual return to t he soil. They’ll trace the stages of decomposition and the succession of insects that arrive along the way\, revealing how these tiny organisms ca n help forensic investigators determine what happened after a person died. The conversation will also look beyond the crime lab to consider decompos ition as part of a larger ecological process\, connecting the human body b ack to the earth and the cycles that sustain life. \n\n\n\nAll Ends Are Be ginnings\n\n\n\nTime(s): 01:00–02:00pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \ n\n\n\nWhat dies becomes what’s next. \n\n\n\nWhat happens after someth ing dies? Three speakers working across astrophysics\, Natural Organic Red uction\, and art approach that question from very different directions. As trophysicist Shyam Menon of the Flatiron Institute looks to the life and d eath of stars\, whose collapse creates the elements that become the buildi ng blocks of planets\, ecosystems\, and our own bodies. Pablo Metz\, co-fo under of Meine Erde\, brings the conversation back to Earth through his wo rk with human composting\, a process that transforms the body into soil. A rtist Jean Shin works with another kind of remains: the objects people dis card. Through her practice\, abandoned materials take on new forms and new meaning. Together\, they’ll consider death not only as disappearance\, but as transformation: the point at which matter moves from one form into another. \n\n\n\nGalactic Time\n\n\n\nTime(s): 01:00–02:00pmLocation: Mo dern Chapel \n\n\n\nA galaxy’s life runs on a clock nothing human can ke ep pace with.  \n\n\n\nEach stage of a galaxy’s lifecycle unfolds over billions of years from formation to collision to its eventual transformati on. It’s so long that no single lifetime\, or a thousand of them\, could ever watch it happen. Astrophysicist Charlotte Welker’s talk is about s cale\, in every sense: the almost incomprehensible timescales galaxies liv e on\, and what happens when we try to think about them the way we think a bout our own lifetimes. Can the concept of homeostasis\, a living system h olding itself in balance\, be adapted to the life cycle of a galaxy? Welke r walks through what it means to think about change at a pace this far rem oved from our own.  \n\n\n\nNatural Organic Reduction at Green-Wood & Bey ond\n\n\n\nTime(s): 02:30–03:30pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n \nEven in death\, the body can still give something back. \n\n\n\nPablo M etz of Meine Erde\, Green-Wood’s Vice President of Landscape Joe Charap\ , and cemetery consultant Stephanie Sloane come together to explore the bi ology\, ecology\, and environmental impact of Natural Organic Reduction. T hey will provide a live demonstration of a Terramation pod and talk throug h the science behind how the body transforms into nutrient-rich earth thro ugh accelerated natural decomposition. Prepare all your questions about th e process\, its practical applications\, and the future of sustainable dea thcare. \n\n\n\nThe Past\, Present\, and Future of the Grave\n\n\n\nTime(s ): 03:00–04:00pmLocation: Meet at the Gothic Arch \n\n\n\nDeathcare has always changed to meet the needs of the living. \n\n\n\nThe way we can la y a loved one to rest is limitless\, from embalming and cremation to Green Burials. Led by longtime Green-Wood tour guide and Grave (2023) author Al lison C. Meier\, this walk explores the past\, present\, and future of int erment and memorization\, including emerging practices like Natural Organi c Reduction and illuminated biomass. \n\n\n\nBiology on Tap\n\n\n\nTime(s) : 04:00–05:00pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nYour body has pl ans for the afterlife\, whether you’ve made any or not. \n\n\n\nJoin sc ientists and anthropologists from Biology on Tap for an evening exploring how different cultures honor the dead\, and what actually happens to a bod y once it returns to the earth\, the sea\, or wherever it ends up. Stick a round for trivia\, prizes included\, if you were paying attention! \n\n\n\ nDeath by Design: Science\, Restoration\, and Ritual\n\n\n\nTime(s): 02:30 –03:30pmLocation: Modern Chapel \n\n\n\nEvery farewell is part science\, part craft\, part ritual. \n\n\n\nThis panel pulls back the curtain on w hat actually happens between death and burial. Frigid Fluid traces the his tory and science of embalming fluid with a live demonstration\, showing th e chemistry that makes preservation possible. Then\, funeral celebrant Jen nifer Muldowney of Muldowney Memorials (better known to many as the Glam R eaper) and Connecticut-based funeral director and post-mortem restorative specialist Amanda King discuss the skill and care that go into returning a familiar face to someone’s loved ones. All three offer a rare\, candid look at the people behind this often-hidden profession\, and what it takes to do the work with precision\, artistry\, and respect. \n\n\n\nDawn to D usk: A Life of the Sun\n\n\n\nTime(s): 04:00–05:00pmLocation: Modern Cha pel \n\n\n\nThe Sun has had quite a life. \n\n\n\nThe Sun is the energy source for almost all life on earth. We use it to speak about a lifetime\, be it the dawn of childhood or the sunset of later years. The sun is what makes bodies (big and small) move. But how did it form? How far has it tr aveled in its lifetime? How will it die? Dr. Mark Popinchalk is an astrono mer at the American Museum of Natural History who studies the lifetimes of stars. This lecture is an intimate biography of our cosmic companion\, us ing astronomy and observation to reveal the “inner motivations”\, “p ersonal struggles” and the “longevity” of stars. \n\n\n\nZinkie Desi gn with Greedy Peasant\n\n\n\nTime(s): 01:00–05:00pmLocation: The Green- House Classroom \n\n\n\nGreedy Peasant invites you to try your hand at des igning your own zinc monument\, better known to cemetery enthusiasts as “Zinkies.” Green-Wood is home to several of these cast metal masterpie ces\, which often feature a fascinating collection of symbols. A Zinkie-fo cused diorama of Green-Wood will be on display to help you get your bearin gs. And after you’ve decorated your personal paper grave marker\, you ca n grab a custom map and go hunt down the real ones across the Cemetery. \n \n\n\n \n\n\n\nThis festival is funded by  the Simons Foundation Inter national and administered by the Simons Foundation’s Science\, Socie ty & Culture division.

We will focus on slab building\, basic handbuilding\, glaze layering and fusing and a particular attention to understanding mois ture levels to master clay forms. Ryan will share about his personal pract ice and offer technical approaches to executing delicate\, low-relief form s. \nABOUT THE EXHIBITION\nPresented in a format that directly references still-life traditions\, Ryan Flores’s new ceramic works bridge the gap b etween two-dimensional imagery and sculptural space. Each piece tests the limits of the medium through delicate\, highly detailed structures and fra gile elements. \nThrough specialized glazing techniques\, Flores mimics th e chiaroscuro\, translucency\, and rich surface textures characteristic of historical painting.

Beneath its rivers\, estuaries\, canals\, and harbors accumulate subm erged layered histories of industry\, public life and ecological transform ation. What remains beneath the surface? \n\n\n\nUrban Water Awareness Day is a public program consisting of an urban waterfront walk\, panel discus sion\, workshop\, and film screening presented in conjunction with New Yor k Climate Week. The program brings together artists\, architects\, urbanis ts\, environmental advocates\, and community organizations\, to examine wa ter as a civic\, social\, and cultural framework\, not merely a technical system. Through public dialogue\, site-based learning\, architectural desi gn\, and artistic practice\, it reflects on municipal water as space for e nvironmental justice\, climate resilience\, urban policy\, and public heal th alongside models for ecological restoration and climate-adaptive design . This program reveals how water continues to shape everyday life and how some of the city’s most pressing environmental\, social\, and political challenges converge in the municipal waters of a warming New York City. It is a joint initiative of Shared Grounds and ECO Solidarity\, a collaborat ive project represented by the Finnish Cultural Institute in New York\, Fl ux Factory\, and the Polish Cultural Institute New York. \n\n\n\nOften hid den beneath streets and woven into the built environment\, water infrastru cture remains largely invisible despite its profound influence on public h ealth\, urban development\, and climate adaptation. These systems\, rangin g from reservoirs and waterways to public pools\, waterfronts\, and estuar ies\, have shaped the growth\, memory\, and daily life of New York City fo r generations. As rising temperatures\, extreme weather events\, and aging infrastructure put increasing pressure on urban environments\, questions of stewardship and resilience become ever more urgent. Urban Water Awarene ss Day proves that cultural programs play an important role in this contex t by making invisible systems visible\, fostering public awareness\, and e ncouraging new ways of imagining climate resilience in the city. \n\n\n\nI n Public Pools research project\, Karolina Częczek reimagines New York Ci ty’s municipal pools as essential civic and ecological infrastructure be yond their seasonal use. The research explores the history\, form\, and so cial and cultural aspects of the swimming pool as an architectural type. T he pool serves as a device to engage specific aspects of public space and architectural invention while revealing the undercurrents of urban policy. \n\n\n\nThe project is illustrated by a catalog of New York City public p ools\, photographs and writings. Through the NYC Water Map\, the project r eveals the city’s interconnected watershed\, from upstate reservoirs to neighborhood pools\, demonstrating how it influences public health\, heat mitigation\, and everyday urban life.  The project also proposes practica l\, climate-adaptive solutions built upon the city’s existing water syst ems. These speculative proposals applied to five distinct typologies of Ne w York City pools\, ranging from programmatic extensions to architectural interventions\, foster use of public amenities and promote climate resilie ncy.  \n\n\n\nExpanding this perspective from citywide water infrastructu re to neighborhood landscapes\, Interval Projects explores how architectur e can reconnect cities with ecological systems. The New York–based pract ice\, founded by Marlisa Wise and Benedict Clouette\, works at the interse ction of architecture\, urban ecology\, and public space\, transforming ov erlooked sites into resilient civic landscapes. Their work on the Dutch Ki lls Loop in Long Island City proves how ecological restoration\, adaptive design\, and public access can reimagine post-industrial waterfronts in re sponse to climate change.   \n\n\n\nTogether\, Karolina Częczek‘s Pub lic Pools and Interval Projects’ vision for the Dutch Kills Loop reframe urban water as shared civic infrastructure. Through architecture\, ecolog ical restoration\, and cultural programming\, Urban Water Awareness Day ex plores how design can strengthen public health\, expand access to the wate rfront\, and foster more resilient relationships between cities\, freight rail\, hidden waterways and community-led reclamation. \n\n\n\nNewtown Cre ek: case study of environmental justice in Long Island City and Greenpoint \n\n\n\nNewtown Creek\, a 3.8-mile tidal estuary bordering Long Island Ci ty and Greenpoint\, has evolved from a vital wetland into one of New York City’s most polluted waterways and a federally designated Superfund site . Decades of industrial contamination\, combined sewer overflows\, and agi ng water infrastructure have made the creek increasingly vulnerable to ris ing sea levels and more frequent extreme weather events. In response\, the Newtown Creek Alliance has led community-driven efforts to restore habita ts\, expand waterfront access\, and advance green infrastructure—exempli fying how ecological restoration\, civic stewardship\, and public engageme nt can contribute to a more resilient urban future. \n\n\n\nProgram\n\n\n\ nSaturday\, September 19\, 2026\, 3:30–8:00 PM \n\n\n\nUrban Waterfront Walk3:30–5:30 PM \n\n\n\nLed by Hart Mankin\, the Newtown Creek Alliance Environmental Educator\, the educational waterfront walk explores Newtown Creek and Dutch Kills as living case studies of waterfront contamination\ , climate vulnerability\,  and environmental justice\, tracing one of New York City’s most historically industrialized waterways as it undergoes ecological restoration. Starting at Hunters Point Avenue\, the route passe s the Dutch Kills Loop beneath the Long Island Expressway\, continues alon g the Montauk Cut-Off rail corridor and the Borden Avenue waterfront\, bef ore concluding at Flux IV. Together\, these sites reveal the layered relat ionship between freight rail\, hidden waterways and community-led reclamat ion.

Only If’s projects span a range of different types and scales\ , from single- and multiple-family housing to larger-scale urban planning\ , research\, and speculation. In 2023 Only If’s People’s Pool project was part of the inaugural exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art\, “Arc hitecture Now: New York\, New Publics\,” featuring projects that envisio n a more accessible\, sustainable\, and equitable New York. Karolina is al so a Critic at the Yale School of Architecture and previously worked at the Office for Metropolitan Architecture (OMA) in Rotterdam and Hong Kon g. \n\n\n\nOnly If Architecture is a New York based architecture and des ign practice founded by architect Karolina Częczek. Working across archi tecture\, urbanism\, research\, and public space\, the studio explores how design can address contemporary environmental and social challenges. Thro ugh projects that connect civic infrastructure\, ecology\, and public life \, Only If develops innovative approaches to climate adaptation and urban resilience. \n\n\n\nThe Public Pools research explores the history\, form \, and social and cultural aspects of the swimming pool as an architectura l type. The pool serves as a device to engage specific aspects of public s pace and architectural invention while revealing the undercurrents of urba n policy. The research is organized as a catalog of New York City public p ools\, and is illustrated by photographs and writings highlighting broader issues related to urban waters. It is accompanied by speculative proposal s\, ranging from architectural interventions to programmatic extensions\, applied to five distinct typologies of New York City pools. This project a ims to spark a broader public conversation around the importance of free a nd accessible spaces for public recreation\, as well as issues related to climate resiliency and city planning. \n\n\n\nInterval Projects\, Marlisa Wise and Benedict Clouette \n\n\n\nInterval Projects is a New York-based architecture and urbanism practice founded by Marlisa Wise and Benedict Clouette. Working at the intersection of design\, public space\, and envir onmental justice\, the practice collaborates with municipalities\, advocac y organizations\, and local communities to develop projects that connect a rchitecture with civic engagement\, ecological restoration\, and public ac cess to urban landscapes. \n\n\n\nTheir work spans adaptive reuse\, commun ity-led planning\, environmental remediation\, and waterfront design. Nota ble projects include the Dutch Kills Loop in Long Island City—a vision for transforming an overlooked industrial corridor into publicly accessib le open space—as well as environmental restoration initiatives for the  Silver Bow Creek Superfund Site in Montana. Through research\, design\, a nd public collaboration\, Interval Projects explores how architecture can support more equitable and resilient urban futures. \n\n\n\nModerator: Pau la Vilaplana de Miguel Assistant Curator at the Museum of Modern Art in New York (MoMA)\, Department of Architecture and Design \n\n\n\nPaula Vila plana de Miguel is a curator\, cultural strategist\, and creative directo r working across architecture and design\, technology\, and contemporary a rt. Paula currently serves as Assistant Curator at The Museum of Modern A rt in New York (MoMA)\, where she has developed projects including Peggy Weil: Core Memory\; The Many Lives of the Nakagin Capsule Tower\; Down to Earth\, and Body Constructs. She has developed projects for institutions such as the Shanghai Art Biennial\, The Victoria and Albert Museum\, The  Venice Architecture Biennial\, and Triennale Milano\, and Ca2M\, among others and her work has been published internationally. \n\n\n\nWorkshop: Adelle Yingxi Lin – Water Portraits of Queens: A Community Ecology Arch ive \n\n\n\nAdelle Yingxi Lin is a Malaysian artist and technologist whos e work bridges performance\,   language\, and participatory systems. Thro ugh installation\, embodied research\, and public ritual\, she explores ho w cultural memory\, technology\, and collective experience shape meaning. Her practice develops forms that foreground care\, ritual\, and relation. \n\n\n\nWater Portraits of Queens: A Community Ecology Archive is a parti cipatory installation and performance project in which Queens residents cr eate calligraphic textiles shaped by community stories and Newtown Creek ’s shifting water chemistry. The work explores how place\, language\, an d environmental conditions co-author a shared cultural archive. For this w orkshop\, Adelle invites participants to write gestures of healing in th eir own languages and place them into water\, where they are transformed i nto a collective portrait of the borough shaped by memory\, ecology\, and care. \n\n\n\nFilm: Sasha Huber & Petri Saarikko – Sanctuary\, Mist (2 026) from Remedies \n\n\n\nSasha Huber (b. 1975) is a Helsinki-based int ernationally recognised visual artist-researcher of Swiss-Haitian heritage . Huber‘s work is concerned with the politics of memory\, care and belo nging in relation to colonial residues left in the environment. Connecting history and the present\, she uses and responds to archival material with in a layered creative practice that encompasses performance-based reparati ve interventions\, video\, photography\, and collaborations. Huber also usurps the staple gun\, aware of its symbolic significance as a weapon\, w hile offering the potential to renegotiate unequal power dynamics and the possibility of repair\, symbolically stitching wounds together (pain-thing s). Known for her artistic research contribution to the “Demounting Loui s Agassiz” campaign\, she is aiming at reassessing the glaciologist’s contentious racist heritage. She holds an MA in visual culture from Aalto University in Helsinki and is presently undertaking a practice-based PhD in artistic research at Zurich University of the Arts.  \n\n\n\nPetri S aarikko (b. 1973) is Helsinki-based artist and designer. In his site-spec ific installations\, Saarikko combines social commentary with his work a s a designer and his background in new media. His work is highly performat ive in nature. Saarikko does not shy away from provocation. He often chall enges ideas of national identity\, artistic authorship or official politic al discourses by changing their context and thus showing the true\, artifi cial nature of these phenomena. His work seeks to expose power relations\, to make room for individual narratives\, and takes a stand on behalf of e quality.  \n\n\n\nSasha Huber and Petri Saarikko collaborate regularly in a creative partnership under the name Remedies. Together they have in itiated the long-term project Remedies Universe (since 2011) which explo res aural family-knowledge in different geographical and cultural contexts and been invited to artist residencies around the world. In 2018\, Huber was the recipient of a State Art Award from the Arts Promotion Centre Fin land. In 2021–2024 her work is touring under the title “You Name It” \, produced by The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery in Toronto and Aut ograph in London. A comprehensive book with the same title was published b y Mousse Publishing in November 2022. Sasha Huber’s work is continued to be supported by Arts Promotion Center Finland through a long-term gr ant. At Urban Water Awareness Day\, Remedies will be showing  (2026)\, a one channel video. Sanctuary\, Mist was commissioned by the 2nd Hels inki Biennale in 2023 and this is the documentation of the generative art installation filmed by Petri Saarikko. The new video work was commission ed for their exhibition in Germany\, entitled Shelter on view September 18-November 8\, 2026 at the Galerie für Gegenwartskunst\, Freiburg\, Ger many. It focuses on colonial power structures and their lasting impact. Th rough their work\, the two artists explore artistic and Indigenous practic es that open up new narratives of solidarity. \n\n\n\nUrban Waterfront Wal k \n\n\n\nNewtown Creek Alliance is a community-based organization dedica ted to restoring\, revealing\, and revitalizing Newtown Creek. We work to restore community health\, water quality\, habitat\, access\, and vibrant commerce along Newtown Creek. Since 2002\, the Alliance has served as a ca talyst for effective community action. \n\n\n\nExhibition: About GBS at Ge nspace Bioart \n\n\n\nGBS Bioart is a community-driven biomaterials resea rch group at Genspace Bioart exploring the intersection of biology\, desig n\, and material innovation. Through collaborative research\, experimentat ion\, and its annual six-month Bioart Incubator\, GBS brings together ar tists\, designers\, scientists\, and community biolabs to develop sustaina ble biomaterials and imagine future ecological approaches to making. Found ed in 2009\, Genspace Bioart is the world’s first community biology la boratory. Based in New York City\, it provides hands-on STEAM education\, public programs\, and collaborative research opportunities that make the l ife sciences accessible to artists\, researchers\, educators\, entrepreneu rs\, and the broader public while fostering innovation across biotechnolog y\, neuroscience\, genomics\, and environmental science. \n\n\n\nPartners\ n\n\n\nShared Grounds is a recurring experimental exhibition initiated by curators Elina Suoyrjö (formerly at the Finnish Cultural Institute in New York) and Meghana Karnik (Flux Factory). Informed by eco-feminist t hought\, the project speculates on placemaking through interspecies allian ces and shared knowledge\, and imagines a public realm shaped by humans an d nonhumans alike. Each edition gathers a new group of Finnish and New Yor k–based artists\, who begin their research independently but share a con viction to live interdependently and to build ways of sharing space and un derstanding one another. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition grew out of an interest in the complexity of public space in a city like New York. It asks who has a ccess to the public realm\, how we are allowed to use it\, and how space i s shared. The artists are politically conscious and critical of the presen t\, but approach these questions through harmonious\, humorous\, empatheti c\, or devotional means rather than irony or cynicism. Shared Grounds is a collaboration between the Finnish Cultural Institute in New York and th e Flux Factory artist collective. \n\n\n\nECO Solidarity is an award-win ning international platform of the Polish Cultural Institute New York\, fo unded in 2020 in partnership with WantedDesign\, Studio Rygalik\, and th e European Union National Institutes for Culture (EUNIC).

The initiative’s name draws inspiration from Poland’s historic So lidarność movement\, reflecting a belief that collective action and cros s-disciplinary collaboration can help shape more resilient\, equitable\, a nd sustainable futures. \n\n\n\nFinnish Cultural Institute in New York wo rks across the fields of contemporary art\, design and architecture\, crea ting dialogue between Finnish and American professionals and audiences. Fo unded in 1990\, the Institute has grown from a residency program to an org anization commissioning large-scale projects and events that foster critic al dialogue and work to build support for professionals in architecture\, design and contemporary art.  \n\n\n\nFlux Factory’s mis­sion is to su p­port emerg­ing artists through res­i­den­cies\, exhi­bi­tions\, e du­ca­tion\, and col­lab­o­ra­tive oppor­tu­ni­ties. Flux is an a rtist-led space that builds sus­tain­able com­mu­ni­ties and retains cre­ative vital­i­ty in NYC. Since 1994 Flux has host­ed over 300 Arti sts-in-Res­i­dence\, both local and inter­na­tion­al\, as well as sta ged over 700 exhi­bi­tions across all dis­ci­plines. Flux’s home in Long Island City is a cre­ative hive that incu­bates exper­i­men­ta ­tion with col­lab­o­ra­tive process­es. Flux hosts over 75 annu­ al mul­ti­dis­ci­pli­nary events\; all are free to the pub­lic while all par­tic­i­pat­ing artists are com­pen­sat­ed. Each year Flux  selects 40 Artists-in-Res­i­dence to devel­op their cre­ative prac­ tices by offer­ing afford­able stu­dios\, shared work­spaces (such as a print shop\, wood shop\, and tech­ni­cal office)\, a solo exhi­bi­ti on\, as well as pro­fes­sion­al devel­op­ment opportunities. \n\n\n\n Polish Cultural Institute New York (established 2000) is a diplomatic mis sion of the Republic of Poland to the United States operating under the Mi nistry of Foreign Affairs. The PCINY’s mission is to share Polish herita ge\, history\, and art with American audiences and to promote Poland’s c ontributions to world culture. The Institute initiates\, supports\, and pr omotes collaboration between Poland and the United States in various field s\, including visual art\, design\, film\, theater\, dance\, literature\, and music\, as well as other areas of intellectual and social life. \n\n\n \nNewtown Creek Alliance is a community-based organization dedicated to r estoring\, revealing\, and revitalizing Newtown Creek\, a 3.8-mile tidal e stuary and federally designated Superfund site bordering Brooklyn and Quee ns. Since 2002\, the Alliance has served as a catalyst for effective commu nity action\, working to restore water quality\, habitat\, public access\, and commerce along the creek. Our programs combine hands-on ecological re storation with environmental education\, including school field trips\, gu ided walking tours\, and public stewardship events. Through advocacy\, mon itoring\, and community partnerships\, NCA works to ensure Newtown Creek ’s recovery reflects the needs and voices of the neighborhoods it runs t hrough. \n\n\n\nThe Hunters Point Parks Conservancy enhances\, activates\ , and advocates for the parks and waterfront of Long Island City\, bringin g communities together\, protecting vital outdoor spaces\, and ensuring la sting access for all. Hunters Point Parks Conservancy was formed in 1998 by a group of  dedicated Long Island City residents determined to improv e the quality of life at the waterfront in Hunter’s Point\, Long Island City. We run over 200 free programs a year for the community\, including y oga and fitness sessions\, kids programs\, movie nights\, and art classes\ , and bring volunteers to the parks to help support the local ecosystem. W e also run environmental education\, public paddle\, and advocacy programs from the Queens Landing Boathouse and Environmental Center.  \n\n\n\n WantedDesign\, founded in 2011\, has evolved into a membership program. It is a dynamic connector and amplifier for global design\, fostering creati ve synergy and serving as a pivotal crossroad for the international design community.

We need solutions that create economic value for businesses and individual s while advancing climate goals. One place to look for these solutions is in our waste. \nThe Circularity Gap Report estimates that roughly €25.4 trillion in economic value is lost globally each year through linear “t ake-make-waste” practices. This “Value Gap” represents 31% of global GDP\, meaning that for every €3 of economic value created worldwide\, a bout €1 is lost. \nIncreasing circularity\, which simply means keeping m aterials in use for as long as possible\, could reduce greenhouse gas emis sions by 39%. Circularity is not only good for the bottom line and the env ironment\, but can also improve quality of life through more durable produ cts\, greater affordability\, and connected communities. \nIf the benefits are so clear\, what will it take to scale circularity? How do we align bu sinesses\, governments\, and communities around a shared path forward? \nT o kick off Climate Week NYC\, Scandinavia House is pleased to partner with Columbia Climate School for a conversation on the promise of a circular e conomy. Join leaders from the public and private sectors as they explore practical solutions and emerging innovations\, lessons learned from Nordic leadership\, and the challenges that remain.

Our intention is to crea te a community of respect\, openness\, and mutual support as we explore th ese difficult and deeply human questions together. \nOn the third Sunday o f every month\, we will meet virtually to explore and reflect on a teachin g of the Buddha. With guidance from teachers Amy Selzer and Nancy Glimm\, together we’ll look at our relationship to change and impermanence\, not icing any resistance or fears that come up. At any stage of life\, we can notice the wisdom that was not available earlier to us. \nThis course offe rs: \n\nA monthly sangha of safety and support\nA community of accountabil ity for a daily meditation practice\nDeeper understanding of impermanence as a teacher\nTools for self-acceptance and inviting moments of joy\nOppor tunities to strengthen and grow mindfulness in daily life\nHomework and pr actice sheets to keep you engaged\nOptional “buddy groups” where you c an share your experiences with and reflections on the teachings learned in class\n\nWe hope that you join us to cultivate a life without fear and on e dedicated to the well-being of all. \n“Once the two of us started teac hing on our own\, we realized that what the Buddha taught illuminated life and death and that his teachings were embedded in both. Our intention is to develop a year-long course that will be both encouraging and doable\, s o that participants will become more comfortable about their own death and what is possible for them in life.” – Amy Selzer and Nancy Glimm \nRe gistration:\nPlease register below.
