Between the Door and the Street

ELIXHER is excited to be one of the groups tapped by the Brooklyn Museum and CREATIVETIME to participate in a public art project by internationally renowned artist Suzanne Lacy.

Recently featured in the New York Times, Suzanne Lacy’s “Between the Door and the Street” will convene hundreds of individuals in conversation on Brooklyn’s most iconic architectural feature — the stoop. This Saturday, October 19, hundreds of women — interspersed with a few groups of men, boys, and girls — will sit in small groups on porches and stoops along a residential street.

Each group will be represented by a New York City-based activist organization, and will take part in their own unique and unscripted conversation. As an audience wanders freely between stoops, they will be able to observe and listen in on conversations about justice and equity, changing gender roles, family, equity, and global issues of labor, poverty, violence, and migration.

Join ELIXHER and other community groups as we help paint a complex portrait of feminism today. The event begins at 4:30 p.m. and will take place on Park Place between Underhill and Vanderbilt Avenues in Brooklyn, NY. For more information, visit creativetime.org.
