The Least Among Them

Tuesday, October 3rd, 7pm
Registration Required: Register Online

Calling all Yankee Fans!

Join New Jersey author, Paul Semendinger, Ed.D. as he discusses his award winning book, The Least Among Them: 29 Players, Their Brief Moments in the Big Leagues, and a Unique History of the New York Yankees.

The Least Among Them is a most special baseball book that looks at the New York Yankees history in an original, unique, and never before written manner. Throughout their history, the Yankees have been defined by the legends of their most famous players. But, as part of their long history, the Yankees have also fielded players that have become lost to history. This book is those players’ story, telling the unique histories of the men whose entire major league baseball career lasted but a single game with that game being played as a New York Yankee. While these players may be forgotten, their stories are compelling. Filled with a unique Yankee history, The Least Among Them tells the story of baseball’s most successful franchise in an entirely new way.

Banner decoration for Designs of Thomas Heatherwick including The Vessel and Little Island

Designs of Thomas Heatherwick including The Vessel and Little Island

Virtual Program
Wednesday, October. 11th, 7pm
Registration Required: Register Online
The British architect and designer Thomas Heatherwick was chosen to contribute a major public artwork for the center of Hudson Yard in Manhattan – a structure that is monumental like architecture, but also elegantly shaped like a sculpture. Intended to attract visitors to the new commercial center, it became controversial for many reasons. Heatherwick’s newest addition to NYC’s landmarks is his Little Island, a circular pier, beautifully landscaped, with outside performance spaces and interactive public art. We will have a close look at the amazing career of this British designer who brings a whole new approach to the shaping of spaces and places, with a special focus on his NYC designs.
