“Can Artists Survive in New York City?” (A Lillian Wald Humanities Long Table)

April 8, 2025
12–2pm

Join us on April 8th from 12–2pm for an open dialogue at The Cooper Union Library between Henry Street Settlement community partners; Art, Architecture, and Engineering students, faculty, and staff; as well as the surrounding community to discuss this year's Lillian Wald Symposium theme, “Can artists survive in NYC?”

The conversation will explore the question, “Can those involved in creative practice, regardless of discipline or field, survive in NYC?” as a lead-up to the annual Lillian Wald Symposium at Henry Street Settlement's Abrons Arts Center on April 9th.

Hosted by the People's Institute for the Advancement of Science and Art (PASA): a collaboration between members of The Cooper Union Library community and of Henry Street Settlement.
