I met Molly Crabapple recently at DIY Days/NYC. She's the unstoppable force behind Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art school, where "artists draw glamorous underground performers in an atmosphere of boozy conviviality."

A New Restaurant Planned for Old Tabla Space Chef Gastón Acurio   For many years, Eleven Madison Avenue was home to Tabla, a beloved Indian-fusion restaurant and special friend to the Madison Square Park Conservancy. Tabla hosted a benefit dinner for the Park each fall and will always hold a place in our hearts and in our neighborhood’s history. We now look forward to welcoming a new restaurant and new friends. One of Peru’s most celebrated culinary figures, Gastón Acurio, will open a New York branch of his popular La Mar eateries in the glorious ground-floor space adjacent to Park. Chef Acurio founded the first La Mar, in Lima, with a mission to share Peruvian gastronomy with the world. La Mar currently operates critically acclaimed Peruvian cebicherías in South America and Mexico, as well as one in San Francisco. Acurio and La Mar have been searching for the right space in New York for some time, and as soon as they saw the Tabla space, they knew they had found the perfect new home for their restaurant right here on the Park. We couldn’t agree with them more. We're confident that La Mar will begin a wonderful new culinary chapter in our community and look forward to welcoming a new friend to the neighborhood.

Dear Mitchell,

There are only a couple of seats remaining for the two upcoming free events for members. Eve Ensler - Tuesday March 22 at 7:00P - To register for one of the few remaining spots click here. The Oxford Gargoyles (International Music Sensation) - Thursday March 17 at 6:30P - To register for one of the few remaining spots click here. Some say Eve Ensler has become the most famous and most powerful feminist in the world. Germaine Greer, Gloria Steniem, Naomi Wolf, and others have been icons for many, but Ensler has emerged as one of the most powerful forces in the twenty-first century. Ensler is a playwright, performer and activist, and is the author of THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES, translated into over 48 languages and performed in over 140 countries, including sold-out runs at both Off-Broadway's Westside Theater and on London's West End (2002 Olivier Award nomination, Best Entertainment) and has been running for 10 years in Mexico City and Paris. In 2004, Ensler performed her play THE GOOD BODY on Broadway in NYC. This was followed by a 20 city national tour in 2005.  Eve's film credits include an HBO film version of THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES (2002). Eve has written numerous articles for Washington Post to O Magazine. In November 2009, Eve was named one of US News & World Report's "Best Leaders" in association with the Center for Public Leadership (CPL) at Harvard Kennedy School, and in 2010 she was named one of "125 Women Who Changed Our World" by Good Housekeeping Magazine. Ms. Ensler's experience performing THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES inspired her to create V-Day, a global movement to stop violence against women and girls. In twelve years, the V-Day movement has raised over $80 million and reached over 300 million people. In 2009, Ensler testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Hearing, Confronting Rape and Other Forms of Violence Against Women in Conflict Zones. The hearing focused on Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), which the United Nations calls the rape capital of the world. Ensler said "The rape and desecration of the Congo is the rape and desecration of all of us." The Oxford Gargoyles will perform live for the Society. They have performed at Lincoln Center, Columbia, Princeton, Yale and Harvard Universities, and on NBC's Today Show. Over the last decade the Gargoyles have become a staple of the world music scene. The group's repertoire, though rooted in the jazz songbook, offers a tasty cocktail of musical styles from pop to show-tunes. So whether they're flying you to the moon or picking up good vibrations, sit back and enjoy an evening of live and intricate arrangements, heavenly harmonies and soulful solos. We look forward to seeing you. Best wishes, Hudson Union Society
