Arts Weekly | May 11-17

We loved seeing some of you for our CultureSwap Circle this past Wednesday morning! It really gave us the necessary push to finish the rest of the week. It was also an important reminder of how we are all experiencing this time differently and yet what joins us all is our unwavering love for the arts and our belief in its significance and power. However you're experiencing this time, we hope that the below Reads, Events, Podcasts, Videos and more will be a welcome help, distraction, or resource. And whether you're a native New Yorker, someone who has moved here one or ten years ago, or has only visited—Spike Lee's short video "New York" released on Instagram is a love declaration to the city. Find it under our Reads below.
 

Join us on Wednesday, May 13, at 8:30pm for our next CultureSwap Circle - hosted by YPA and 92Y.
