Alumnae Events

Sorry, It's been a really busy summer ladies! I will be starting the monthly Happy Hours again, slowly but surely.

Switchback Sea

Swimming cities of Switchback Sea is a flotilla of seven intricately hand crafted vessels that will navigate the stretch of the Hudson River between Troy and the New York harbor this August 15th - September 7th. Imagined as a hybrid between boats and bits of land mass broken off and headed out to sea, the Switchback vessels will make stops in towns along the river bringing performances and music. Over the course of three weeks they will make their way toward their home port - an invented landscape tucked into a niche along the East River in Long Island City, Queens.

The Swimming Cities is designed and organized by printmaker and installation artist Swoon. Collaborators include playwright Lisa D’Amour, the band Dark Dark Dark and circus composer Sxip Shirey. Propulsion systems brought by John Rinaldi and Kinetic Steam Works. Boat design and carpentry created in close collaboration with Jeff Stark, Iris Lasson, and The Floating Neutrinos. This is Swoon’s second major installation with Deitch Projects.

Michael Jackson

Ladies,

I know this isn't really a gossip column but did you know that Michael Jackson is planning to move to Poughkeepsie, NY? A bit of a shocker to me, but I figured this would be entertaining to you all.

April Happy Hour

Ladies,

I will have to cancel April's Happy Hour. Unfortunately, I have a business trip I need to go to. I will update you when I will reschedule it. Probably will not be until after May 12th.
