Learn about watersheds and waterways while you reflect on the importance of water as a human right. Use the Japanese art of suminagashi and orizome to explore techniques in marbling and dyeing. Lightly touch the water’s surface with a brush for a floating-ink effect, or fold ink-absorbent paper to emulate ripples and waves. Think about how you’d like to make waves and ripples in your own life and community. Free, and admission to the grounds is free until noon.

Tour Glyndor Gallery with Wave Hill’s Curatorial Fellow or Gallery Greeter to get an insider’s view of current exhibitions. The exhibition Here We Land features three former Winter Workspace artists, Camille Hoffman, Maria Hupfield and Sara Jimenez, who return to explore narratives about contested space that draw on personal and cultural touch points in their immersive installations. In the Sunroom, Amir Hariri creates sculptural installations constructed of wood, brick and other building materials—along with a wall drawing—that connect to his architectural research to the Bronx and Wave Hill. In the Sun Porch, Geoffrey Owen Miller suspends transparent, upside down sculptures of flora and fauna—inspired by Wave Hill—from the ceiling over sheets of black-mirrored glass. Visitors see prismatic reflections of the hanging plants and animals in upright positions in the glass. Free with admission to the grounds.

Praised as "a true treat for the adventurous ear" (Time Out New York), Bombay Rickey might be the soundtrack to a Bollywood Noir from the 1960s or a Spaghetti Western that never existed. The five-piece band defies easy categorization, with a unique sound evocative of cinematic soundscapes. Performing covers and original music that borrow equally from the worlds of Surf Rock, Cumbia, Spaghetti Western and Bollywood, and balanced out with a coloratura homage to Yma Sumac, Bombay Ricky’s music is complex but playful, danceable and intellectual―and unlike anything you’ve ever heard. Free with admission to the grounds. Special evening admission starts at 4PM. $12 general adult admission; $8 student and seniors 65+; $6 children ages six+. Purchase admission online by 4pm day of event and save $2. Free to Wave Hill Members and children under age six. No guest passes or reciprocal admission accepted.
