SUMMARY:Exhibit: Creating Kosher Chop Suey
DESCRIPTION:What happened when chop suey\, a Chinese dish with American roots\, encountered Jewish customers in New York at the turn of the century? A new Center for Women’s History installation in the Joyce B. Cowin Women’s History Niche sheds light on the vibrant\, gastronomic collaboration between two ethnic communities. From debates in the Yiddish press to the publication of  kosher Chinese cookbooks\, and from representations in fine art to restaurant ephemera\, the installation explores how Jewish and Chinese women\, with a shared love for food\, together introduced a new phenomenon in the 1960s: kosher Chinese cuisine. Curated by Shiyong Lu\, Mellon Foundation Predoctoral Fellow in Women’s History and Public History\, and Anna Danziger Halperin\, Director for the Center for Women’s History.  \nImage: Gifford Reynolds Beal (1879–1956). Chinese Restaurant #1\, ca. 1930.

SUMMARY:Author Talk: Ed Park: An Oral History of Atlantis with Mira Jacob - Hybrid
DESCRIPTION:A deadpan\, wildly imaginative collection of stories that slices clean through the mundanity and absurdity of modern life\, An Oral History of Atlantis is the newest collection of short stories from Ed Park\, the author of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize–winner and Pulitzer Prize finalist Same Bed Different Dreams. \n\n\nIn this utterly original collection\, characters question the fleetingness of youth and art\, reckon with the consequences of the everyday\, and find solace in the absurd\, the beautiful\, and the sublime. Throughout\, Ed Park deploys his trademark wit to create a world both strikingly recognizable and delightfully other. All together\, these fifteen stories have much to say about the meaning—and transitory nature—of our lives. And they are proof positive that Ed Park is one of the most insightful and imaginative writers working today. \nIn this conversation with Mira Jacob\, presented in collaboration with Yu & Me Books\, Ed Park discusses his latest book. \n* An Oral History of Atlantis will be available for sale at the venue. The author will sign books after the program.

SUMMARY:Theater: Destination Undefined
DESCRIPTION:A futuristic sci-fi play in NYC—robots\, memory cubes\, and a society that forgot what it meant to be human. \nSynopsis/ \nFive AI researchers from the Human Research Institute discover a mysterious Memory Cube buried in a long-forgotten Gold Vault beneath Manhattan. It contains something unimaginable: a living record of human consciousness from the year 2051. \nAs they decode the fragments\, a lost cyborg world begins to emerge — AI units fight for voting rights\, chip-enhanced humans scramble to survive a collapsing system\, and hidden secrets pulse beneath the vault’s rusted doors. Above ground\, a civilization built on algorithms begins to collapse. Below\, the last defenders of a relic economy are trapped with more questions than answers. \nBut the deeper the researchers dive\, the more unstable the memory becomes. Is this just a simulation of the past — or a warning from it? \nDestination Undefined is a genre-bending sci-fi absurdist play about trust\, identity\, and the cost of being human in a world that no longer knows what that means.
