(at Vernon Blvd.) | 718-204-7088 “Noguchi + Pratt: An Exhibition” On view through June 28 Earlier this year, graduate interior design students from the Pratt Institute were given the task to draw inspiration from Isamu Noguchi’s work. They then researched Noguchi’s histor, studied pieces in the Museum, and applied their knowledge to design a “hypothetical annex” for the Museum in Brooklyn. As part of the project, students were asked to design a temporary exhibition for the space using subjects found in the research. On display are design proposals, drawings, and student analyses on Noguchi objects. THE SECRET THEATRE 44-02 23rd St. | 718-392-0722 “Three Sisters Tulsa, 1921” June 25 @ 8PM I June 26 @ 8PM June 27 @ 8PM I June 28 @ 2PM, 7:30PM Tickets $15 A devised workshop performance produced by the nonprofit The Applied Theatre Collective in collaboration with director Marissa Metelica, assistant director Chelsea Hackett, playwright Lauren Whitehead, and the ATC Theatre Ensemble. Set in the neighborhood of Greenwood in Tulsa County, Oklahoma, one of the wealthiest black communities in the United States at the time, the play follows Uli, Cora, and Irene before, during, and after the Tulsa Race Riot that engulfed their home and lives in 1921. “Three Sisters: Tulsa, 1921” focuses on the strength and resilience of those most gravely affected by violence they can do nothing to control: black women. We see the sisters struggle to keep their family and community together, even as it turns to ash around them.
