Attacks on Democracy: The Plot Against America
2026-04-29 20:00 - 21:30 (America/New_York) | Church of the Village, 201 W 13th St, New York, NY 10011, New York, 1011, United States
U.S. Democracy is at a critical juncture. The institutions and rights that gird our democratic society, from universities to media to protest, to a pluralistic and diverse society, are under consistent and pressing attack. Central to these attacks is the targeting of free expression and a free press.
In the PEN World Voices Festival’s urgent opening event, PEN America Co-CEO Summer Lopez will convene leading voices Judith Butler, Molly Jong-Fast, Eddie Glaude, and Phil Klay to discuss the health of our democracy, where we are now, and where we are going.

Geographies of Extraction: Loss, Power, and Cultural Rematriation
2026-04-29 18:30 - 20:00 | AIA New York | Center for Architecture – Tafel Hall, 536 LaGuardia Pl, New York, 10012, United States
It was on a tour of the British Museum years ago that Mohegan theater artist Madeline Sayet (Where We Belong) discovered a collection of Native American skulls—objects the museum classified as artifacts, but which she understood as ancestors, alive with the yearning to return home. In Gabriela Wiener’s irreverently witty novel, Undiscovered (tr. Julia Sanches), the Peruvian writer is confronted by her complicated family colonial heritage in a museum in Paris when she discovers the man responsible for pillaging these pre-Columbian artifacts was her own great-great-grandfather. In Who Owns Beauty? (tr. Andrew Brown), French art historian Bénédicte Savoy, whose work has fundamentally reshaped debates on provenance, museums, and cultural restitution, asks us to examine how great works of art collected in Western museums came to be there.
In a conversation moderated by PEN America’s Executive Director of Artists at Risk Connection, Julie Trébault, these writers ask: what do the journeys of human remains, cultural artifacts, and iconic artworks reveal about our history? What makes the violence and asymmetries that have shaped their extraction, preservation, and return both collective and deeply personal experiences?

Lincoln Center Presents: Juilliard Green Club Presents an Earth Day Concert
2026-04-22 19:30 - 21:00 | David Rubenstein Atrium, 61 W 62nd St, New York, NY, 10023, United States
Dancers, actors, and musicians from The Juilliard Green Club are thrilled to take the stage to present a multi-genre, immersive concert experience. We ask our audience to consider our collective futures in the face of climate change amidst differences in background, class, resources, and geographical location. Artists have always looked either to the past or forward to an unknown future, often attempting to predict what awaits all of us with the knowledge that they have in their time. This need to consider our place and agency within a larger context is one artists always struggle with; but today, it is something we all struggle with, as the choices necessary to guarantee a safe future are not in our hands. We will consider art that seeks out the past, present, and future of our Earth to answer the following question: how have artists considered their futures in the past, and what can we learn from them in imagining our own future?

Rituals of Repair
2026-04-17 18:00 - 20:00, 2026-04-17 12:00 - 2026-06-13 18:00 | Cuchifritos Gallery + Project Space
Cuchifritos Gallery is pleased to present Rituals of Repair, a three-person exhibition bringing together the work of Jonathan Sánchez Noa, Alejandro Valencia, and Carlos Vielma, on view April 17-June 13, 2026. Centered on themes of cultural resilience, the exhibition considers how artists mobilize material, memory, and ritual to confront the enduring effects of colonialism and to imagine forms of continuity across rupture.
At the heart of the exhibition is an exploration of the porous relationships between colonial histories, religious inheritances in cultural diaspora, and personal ritual. Through sculpture, assemblage, and materially charged paintings, the exhibition traces how inherited knowledge persists, transforms, and reemerges through the body, the landscape, and everyday acts of resilience.
Jonathan Sánchez Noa’s handmade paper works are laden with culturally significant materials such as cascarilla, indigo, and tobacco. Intertwining traditional modes of fabrication, natural materials, and ritual practices, his works create connections between nature, spirituality, and the body while reconstructing narratives of displacement in relation to cultural and religious significance.
Alejandro Valencia’s sculptures emerge as a product of mestizaje: a process of collision where materials and their histories meet, fracture, and recombine. Found and reclaimed objects marked by social, cultural, and political memory, are brought into contact, altering the meanings they carry. Moving between symbol and material, the works give rise to new narratives, where identity appears not as fixed, but as an alchemical and shifting condition, continuously transformed.
Carlos Vielma returns to a pictorial technique typical of the border, popularized in the 1970s in Mexican craft markets where gringos bought souvenirs. Black velvet paintings have long been considered kitsch, as their typical subjects range from stereotyped Indigenous imagery to pop icons like Elvis. Through a kind of auto-ethnography, he draws on family memory to highlight the
political conditions that have shaped his family through representations of the border landscape.
Conceived as a dialogue between artists from across the Americas, the exhibition highlights shared affinities in material experimentation and symbolism. Together, they reinvigorate traditions of found object assemblage, material symbolism, and creolization to examine knowledge systems that remain at the edges of Western thought while also reaching beyond it.
Rather than offering fixed histories, the works in Rituals of Repair open a space for reflection on survival, transformation, and relation. Across diverse practices, the exhibition proposes cultural resilience not as recovery alone, but as an active, ongoing process of making meaning from fracture, inheritance, and change.
