Wicked Fever in NYC

NYC has been buzzing with all things Wicked as the new movie was released! They hosted the US premiere here in the city, a nod to this being where the musical got its start. Around Rockefeller Center, there were lots of fun bits, including a yellow brick road and pink and green flags flying around the rink.

The Swarovski flagship store on Fifth Avenue also had some amazing Wicked costumes on display. They helped create the costumes for both Glinda and Elphaba and had the pink gown and Elphie's black dress on display. 

We're seeing the movie over the Thanksgiving weekend and I cannot wait!

Canstruction 2025

After missing Canstruction last year, I made sure to get down to Brookfield Place to see the masterpieces this year! Once again, in a partnership with City Harvest, engineers, contractors, and architects were challenged to create works of art out of canned goods. The creations this year were so amazing and super creative!

My favorites were the capybaras, the bunny in the magician's hat, and pizza rat! There were a few nods to the upcoming North American-hosted World Cup and some a "RIP" to the MTA's MetroCard, which is now extinct. 

It is truly amazing what you can do with some cans and creativity. Given the current food insecurity crisis that many Americans are facing this year, it is nice to know that these works of art will go on to help feed those are in need. Works of art to acts of love and kindness thanks to City Harvest!

Two Home Countries

The Japanese Society currently has an amazingly beautiful exhibit called Two Home Countries on dosplay. The masterpiece was created by Chiharu Shiota at. The amazing installation marks the ending of World War 3 and the subsequent 80 years since the end of World War II.

Shiota’s work weaves together memory, identity, and loss, connecting the collective tragedy of war with her own reflections on mortality and what it means to live between two homes. It’s quiet, powerful, and deeply striking. It was a perfect little stop on a morning in the city.
