SUMMARY:Casa Italiana at NYU Hosts Triangle Fire Memorial Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:NYU Casa Italiana Zerilli-Marimò and Remember the Triangle Fire Coalition \n\n\n\nPresent \n\n\n\nCollective Ribbon:The Interwoven Voices of the Triangle Fire Memorial \n\n\n\nOctober 9\, 2023 – December 15\, 2023 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAn Exhibition Curated byRichard Joon Yoo and Uri WegmanCo-designers of the Triangle Fire Memorial \n\n\n\nSpecial Note: Exhibition includes a sewing machine that survived the 1911 Triangle Fire \n\n\n\nOn viewOctober 9\, 2023 – March 29\, 2024Mon-Fri 10-6 \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nA permanent memorial for the victims of the Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire is being erected on the site of the fire near Washington Square\, more than a century after the fire and neglect killed 146 workers\, mainly young immigrant women of Italian and Jewish descent. The “Collective Ribbon” exhibition tells the story of a unique participatory process in the design of the memorial. Our community of people from all walks of life came together and sewed a long ribbon made of hundreds of pieces of fabric. Gathered across long rows of sewing tables\, the participants created a tapestry of personal fragments\, stories and memories of the Triangle Fire. The texture of this collective ribbon is now etched into the steel of the permanent memorial for the Triangle Fire\, making a lasting reminder of the many individual voices and stories that were\, and still are\, interwoven with the story and the legacy of the Triangle Fire. The exhibition offers a glimpse into some of the stories and exchanges that unfolded during the making of the ribbon\, and the role of the ribbon as a communal act of commemoration\, linking the present to the 1911 Triangle \n\n\n\n\n\nOn view at:Casa Italiana Zerilli-MarimòNew York University24 West 12th Street(btw 5th and 6th Ave)New York\, NY 10011 \n\n\n\nMore information at www.casaitaliananyu.org/events/collective-ribbon

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: On the Lower East Side: 28 Remarkable Women...and One Scoundrel
DESCRIPTION:Museum at Eldridge Street12 Eldridge Street New York\, NY 10002 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Museum at Eldridge Street is proud to present a new exhibition featuring 29 women who lived or worked on the Lower East Side of New York at the turn of the twentieth century. Their mixed media portraits by artist Adrienne Ottenberg incorporate maps of the Lower East Side neighborhood and are printed on silk or cotton banners that will be hung throughout the Museum’s gallery and historic sanctuary. Stories about the women highlight the work\, life\, and impact they made culturally\, on social justice movements\, and more. \n\n\n\nThose featured in the exhibition include political activist Frances Perkins\, who upon witnessing the tragic Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire\, took on an influential role in the workers-rights advocacy movement\, which led her to eventually become President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Secretary of Labor–the first ever woman cabinet member; suffragette and activist Mabel Ping-Hua Lee who campaigned for women’s rights to vote and was the first Chinese woman in the United States to earn her doctorate; and public healthcare worker Elizabeth Tyler\, who was the first Black nurse hired at Henry Street Settlement\, and went on later to establish the Stillman House Settlement on Manhattan’s West Side\, which provided health care and social services to the Black community in San Juan Hill.  The show will be accompanied by an audio guide through Bloomberg Connects in which 29 people–Eldridge docents\, staffers\, the artist\, and descendants of the historic women–speak the parts of those portrayed in the show. \n\n\n\n​Adrienne Ottenberg lives and works in New York City. Her work combines traditional drawing and painting with digital media. After many years doing editorial and book illustration\, she found herself creating maps\, and subsequently earned an MA in geography at CUNY to learn computer mapping. She has illustrated more than a dozen books\, created frontispiece maps and endpapers\, and created illustrated maps for gallery shows. She is inspired by historical maps and how we each create and bring meaning to the map of our own lives. \n\n\n\nMore information at www.eldridgestreet.org/lowereastsidewomen

After years of editorial and book illustration\, she found herself creating maps\, and pursued an MA in geography to learn computer mapping. She is inspired by historical maps and how we create and bring meaning to the map of our own lives. \n\n\n\nAdrienne Andi Sosin\, Ed.D. is a founding member of the Remember the Triangle Fire Coalition.
