Meet & Greet Follows Event

Wed, Jun 12, 7:30 pm ET, from $25 

Join viral pop star Chrissy Chlapecka named one of “The Brightest Pop Stars to Watch” by Rolling Stone for a conversation with Griffin Maxwell Brooks, plus a special performance from her new debut EP, Girlie Pop. Amassing millions of TikTok followers for her unabashedly queer, high-femme camp aesthetic, Chlapecka is making pop music for a new generation think Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande, but with more glitter and pink. Just in time for Pride month, catch her for this special performance of songs from Girlie Pop , plus a few surprise fan favorites, and a conversation with fellow viral phenom Griffin Maxwell Brooks on reclaiming the word “bimbo” and the shift that Gen Z has brought on about the ideas of feminism, toxic masculinity, “the male gaze,” and much more.

KISSING GIRLS ON SHABBAT: A CONVERSATION WITH DR. SARA GLASS AND 92NY’S RABBI DAVID INGBER 

Mon, June 17, 7:30 pm ET, from $18

Join therapist, writer, and speaker Dr. Sara Glass as she discusses the experience of being part of the LGBTQ+ community while navigating her Orthodox background, as detailed in her new memoir, Kissing Girls on Shabbat. The author takes us inside the journey of her desperate attempt to protect her children while also embracing her queer identity. Kissing Girls on Shabbat is not only a love letter to Glass’s children, herself, and her family—it is an unflinching window into the world of ultra-conservative Orthodox Jewish communities and an inspiring celebration of learning to love yourself.
