The green anaconda is the world’s heaviest snake — but you don’t feel what that means until you see its skin stretched out in front of you. Absolutely awe-striking.

This week I heard geoscientist Andrés Ruzo & @theexplorersclub.bsky.social Teacher Fellows share stories from Peru’s Boiling River.
Their passion reminded me how powerful experiential learning is — for students & for anyone curious about the world. Grateful for such an inspiring night!
Both artworks will be on display at Riverside Park until August 31, 2025! If you’re in NYC, definitely stop by and experience them for yourself!

Patricia Espinosa’s Hourglass reminds us that time, like water, slips away drop by drop. It’s a beautiful and urgent call to action about the fragility of our environment.

Malin Abrahamsson’s Moon Finder is a public sculpture and celestial compass, aligned with the ecliptic — the path of the Sun, Moon, and planets. It invites you to reflect on your place in the cosmos.

For April’s full moon, I partnered with Art Students League of New York artists Malin Abrahamsson and Patricia Espinosa, and nature photographer Jeanne Yan for a night of moongazing and an artist talk at Riverside Park.

In the middle of NYC, we carved out a space for wonder. People came together—some for the first time—to peer through a telescope, see Jupiter’s moons, and share in the magic of the night sky. Awe is better when it’s shared.
