Held on the occasion of Megan Marrin’s mural 340 E. 9th St, please join us for a conversation between Marrin and writer, scholar and activist Sarah Schulman. Both longtime residents of the East Village, Marrin and Schulman will discuss the ever-changing visuals of the neighborhood, from murals to signage, and how those changes accumulate in the memories of those who live here.
Weather permitting, the program will be held on SI’s roof terrace, under Marrin’s mural.
