TICKETS + INFORMATION

Che Chen, one of the most interesting musicians in New York, stations musicians on each bank of Whale Creek in a sonic exploration of this fraught site: a pleasant nature park situated on a major pollution site that was once a rich hunting and fishing ground — and which now serves as a harbinger of waterfront gentrification. On Thursday at 8:00 PM, Chen (through ISSUE Project Room) will make an online presentation featuring studio sounds and field recordings with visuals, all relating to the site.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: Extend your time overlooking Newtown Creek with some pleasant Middle Eastern-inflected food at Glasserie.
