Telling the Art Deco Story of The Bronx
About the Program:
Art Deco blossomed in The Bronx during the 1920s and 1930s, transforming each and every neighborhood. From the legendary Grand Concourse to Orchard Beach, architectural historian Matt Postal will celebrate Jazz Age gems throughout New York City’s northernmost borough.
While attention will certainly be paid to the splendid “Fish Building” and Paul Manship’s Rainey Memorial Gates, he’ll also cast an eye on magnificently-decorated apartment lobbies, playful humanist sculptures at Parkchester, and various public initiatives sponsored by the Works Projects Administration.
This event is free to residents of The Bronx. Note that you will need to provide your current address as a resident of The Bronx to attend this event at the free resident rate. If you are not a current resident, you will be sent an invoice at the non-resident rate.

When you sign up for the program you have the opportunity to watch, or rewatch, the recording at a time more convenient for your schedule.
