It is July which means it is Disability Pride Month. In the face of unwavering violence\, Pride is a complicating energy to hold. It is neither just the appreciation of progress nor an acknowledgement of one’s efforts. Pride is a collective rally into the necessity of and our presence to dignity—in living\, in death\, in sorrow\, in celebration. The dignity of ourselves as individuals within a network of many. The dignity of our breathing. The dignity of our struggle. The dignity of our being here now\, our being there then\, our will to be again. In a small chorus\, Dan Schapiro\, Jackie Torres\, and Kay Ulanday Barrett will offer  up songs\, chants\, memories\, directives\, considerations\, dreams\, and much more on how we can continue our mission of dignified life for all of us.  \n  \nThis event will take place on Zoom and will be accompanied by an cozy in-person viewing in the Susan and John Hess Family Theater for folks who wish to convene in person.

Join us in June to explore the current exhibition Young Picasso in Paris. \nAt only nineteen years old\, a young Pablo Picasso first arrived in Paris on a whirlwind two-month stay\, returning the following year to experience galleries\, cafés\, and dance halls that would inspire and highlight his paintings and drawings from 1900-1901. This intimate exhibition showcases Picasso’s artistic development reflected in his character studies\, defining works like Le Moulin de la Galette\, and several self-portraits. \nIn conjunction with the fiftieth anniversary of Picasso’s death\, join us in exploring works made during a formative period of his life. This month’s Mind’s Eye programming will be led by educator Ellen Edelman through verbal description and conversation. The virtual session will be accessible by web link or by dial-in phone number\, depending on your preference. \nThe same program will be offered twice virtually and twice in person; please RSVP for only one session. \nIn-Person Program Dates: \n\nMonday\, June 19\, 6:30-8:30pm ET\nWednesday\, June 21\, 2:00-4:00pm ET\n\nVirtual Program Dates: \n\nMonday\, June 26\, 6:30-8:30pm ET\nWednesday\, June 28\, 2:00-4:00pm ET\n\nFree\, but space is limited.
