Our fabulous lineup includes Exhibition Curator Paul B. Preciado; Adrian Jones–Adjunct Professor, Fashion Institute of Technology; Alice Sheppard & Laurel Lawson of Kinetic Light; Artist Mary Duffy; Author McKenzie Wark; Simi Linton of Proclaiming Disability Arts; and Jules Gill-Peterson, author of Histories of the Transgender Child, and more.

One Must Live It: Rotations Workshop

On Sunday the museum will host Rotations, a hybrid movement workshop in partnership with Brooklyn Arts Exchange, organized by Yo-Yo Lin and friends.

Rotations is a “collaborative movement practice project focused on deepening and challenging our understanding of artistry, disability, and access.”

The workshop welcomes anyone who holds a relationship with illness/disability, which includes those who are unsure about their disability status.

In-person at the Museum and online via zoom
Image description: A triptych shows us three different people: The first is a woman slyly smiling at the camera, wearing red-tinted glasses with a blue hued background behind her. The middle image is of a disabled performer, Perel. They are mid-dance, wearing a flowy blue shirt that matches the lighting of the image. A cane is visible in their left hand. The final image is of a smiling Black woman, Kayla Hamilton, who looks directly at the camera.
