LMCC is pleased to present the 2011 season of Access Restricted: Lower Manhattan Revealed, a free nomadic lecture series that opens rarely visited and often prohibited spaces in Lower Manhattan to the general public. In six
programs taking place at historic sites in Lower Manhattan, artists, writers, and scholars whose own work has focused on the area will discuss significant cultural phenomena from the recent history of Lower Manhattan as well as its more
deeply rooted past.
Cultural Memory
A conversation between Clifford Chanin, Founder, The Legacy Project and Steven Davis, FAIA, Davis Brody Bond Aedas
What are global issues of art in the aftermath of trauma and how does cultural memory inform design such as that of the National September 11 Memorial Museum? Completed in 2006, 7 World Trade Center replaced the last building to fall on
9/11 and offers not only a bird's-eye view of Ground Zero construction, but also a panoramic outlook.
Date & Time:
Wednesday, January 19, 6:30PM
Location:
7 World Trade Center, 250 Greenwich Street, 45th Floor
RSVP required; RSVP goes live on Tuesday, January 11, 12PM. Click

Led by Heidi Riegler, PR consultant & founder of RIEGLER MEDIA | MARKETING

that will garner press coverage and visibility for your art project and for yourself.
In this three-part workshop, participants will learn how to develop targeted PR and media plans, craft written press materials, and reach out to the media:

Session 1: Public & Media Relations Basics
January 26, 2011, 6:30 – 8PM
