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

DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, March 26 at 6:30 PM \n\n\n\nNYU’s Casa Italiana Serilli-Marimo 24 West 12th StreetNew York\, NY 10011-8604 \n\n\n\nAttend in-person or watch online! \n\n\n\nAlba Capriati Lecture \n\n\n\nIt Begins with a NameLearning to Remember the Triangle Fire \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nA lecture byEdvige Giunta\, New Jersey City University \n\n\n\nRespondents:Jennifer MerzAuthor of Steadfast: Frances Perkins\, Champion of Workers’ Rights \n\n\n\nEtrita Abdullahu\, dancer \n\n\n\nIn ENGLISH \n\n\n\nBook signing with Edvige Giunta and Jennifer Merz \n\n\n\nOn March 25\, 1911\, 146 workers—mostly Eastern European Jewish and Southern Italian immigrant women and girls–died in a fire at the Triangle Waist Company in New York City. The fire\, caused by lack of adequate safety measures\, had such an impact on public consciousness that it changed US social history. Edvige Giunta considers the question of the memory work surrounding the fire in contemporary times. Drawing on her pedagogical experience as a teacher of memoir as well as a course on the Triangle fire\, the co-editor of Talking to the Girls: Intimate and Political Essays in the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire will present a memoiristic model for writing of the historical past. \n\n\n\nEdvige Giunta is the author of Writing with an Accent: Contemporary Italian American Women Authors and coeditor of several anthologies. Talking to the Girls: Intimate and Political Essays on the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire\, edited with Mary Anne Trasciatti\, received the 2023 Ssuan Koppelman Award for Best Anthology in Feminist Studies in American and Popular Culture. The Italian translation of Talking to the Girls will be published by Iacobelli. She is Professor of English at New Jersey City University where she has created courses on the memoir and the Triangle fire. \n\n\n\nJennifer Merz is an artist\, illustrator\, and published picture-book writer/illustrator. Her handcrafted collages are made from textured papers\, fabrics\, and trimmings. She is the author/illustrator of Steadfast: Frances Perkins Champion of Workers’ Rights. When Frances Perkins witnessed New York City’s Triangle Factory fire in 1911\, her desire to help workers transformed into a lifelong mission. First woman in a US Cabinet\, she was the force behind the New Deal and Social Security. \n\n\n\nEtrita Abdullahu is a dancer who graduated from the Joffrey Ballet School. She received her BFA from NJCU\, where she choreographed and performed a ballet piece inspired by the Triangle Fire. Her most recent performances were for the Nutcracker Dream with Carole Alexis Ballet Theater where she danced the leading role of Marie. \n\n\n\nFor more information and to view online\, visit www.casaitaliananyu.org
