5:00 to 7:00, Queens Museum of Art
Free and Open to the Public
According to the Queen's Museum, "Since the late 1960s, Mierle Laderman Ukeles’s performances, sculptural installations, and writing have explored issues profoundly important to society today: the role of women in society, cultures of work and labor, and urban and community resilience. Her MANIFESTO FOR MAINTENANCE ART 1969! laid out the hidden, yet essential role of maintenance in Western society—and the radical implications of actively valuing rather than dismissing or hiding it."
Tour the retrospective “Mierle Laderman Ukeles: Maintenance Art" with the artist.
For those who pre-registered, the bus leaves at 3:30 from the
54th Street side of the Hilton.
The bus is full, but people are still welcome to attend the reception. The Queens Museum is easily accessible from the Hilton by subway.
