Imagining Seneca Village

September 25, 6-7:30pm 
Choreographer and 2007 iLAB Resident Lise Brenner has partnered with Tenement Museum Education and tour guide Emily Gallagher and composer/performer Imani Uzuri to create a tour of an imagined Seneca Village, a New York City semi-rural, woodland settlement that flourished in the early-mid 19th century. Populated by predominantly African-American and Irish landholders, Seneca Village was located on the West side of the Park, from approximately 83rd-88th Streets, and was torn down in 1858, when Central Park was created.
Location: Summit Rock, Central Park.
