SUMMARY:Heckscher Museum of Art and The Huntington Historical Society “We The People…” A Conversation About Art & Democracy
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening of food\, conversation\, and connection at our Democracy Dinner\, presented by the Huntington Historical Society and Heckscher Museum of Art! \nInspired by the 250th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and the Museum’s 100th Anniversary of Eclipse of the Sun by George Grosz\, this community gathering brings people from all walks of life together around a shared table for an open and welcoming dialogue on democracy\, liberty\, freedom\, civic participation\, and freedom of expression. \nArtists from this year’s Just Powers: Long Island Biennial 2026 exhibition will join as special guests\, helping to spark conversation by sharing how these ideas shape their work and creative practices and offering a unique perspective at the intersection of art and civic life. \nThe evening will feature catering by Gingerbites\, a local restaurant serving Haitian cuisine rooted in rich cultural traditions. With Haitian Flag Day (May 18) just days later\, the menu offers a meaningful connection to themes of unity\, resistance\, and pride\, highlighting how culture and shared experience can bring people together and deepen conversations around inclusion and belonging. \nWhether you are deeply engaged in these topics or simply curious\, we warmly welcome you to participate in thoughtful exchange and community building. All are welcome!
