Our first Public Space Potluck of the summer will be co-hosted with Carousel in the 590 Atrium, the privately-owned public space (POPS) at the IBM building on Madison Avenue.
Join us for a communal meal in the soaring atrium of the IBM building and a temporary art event by Carousel who will present Limited Edition, a slide show of Brooklyn-based artist Sarah Butler's work.
Timed with the current programming at the Center for Architecture called "Open to the Public: Civic Space Now," this potluck will stimulate an active dialogue on how 'public' NYC POPS truly are.
We will provide the cups, plates, and napkins - but in true potluck-style, all attendees are asked to bring a food dish to share! This event is open to all, with no limit on the number of attendees.
The very notion of public space, a subject largely reserved for design professionals until about a decade ago, is a hot topic today.
