New York City’s most iconic block becomes home to full-day immersive performances by seven Brooklyn-based artists.   

The Six Foot Platform Calendar, at the intersection of Washington and Water Streets.

Saturday, September 6: Eiko Nishida | Bark Tarot
Bark Tarot is an audience-participatory installation. Each bark incorporates a cut-out word from local or major newspapers in multiple languages distributed in New York. As audiences engage with the installation, they are encouraged to contemplate their question in the present moment, and select a bark from the multitude available, revealing what the Universe has to say to them.

Saturday, September 13: Christopher Ender Coryat | Face to Face Toilets (Revisited)
Two toilets are positioned uncomfortably close, facing each other, transforming a familiar site of solitude into a charged space of confrontation and communion. First conceived in 2017, the piece now returns with added context around disability, autonomy, and public exposure. The work invites passersby to question social norms around privacy, control, and the body.

Saturday, September 20: Mikaela Perry | Dumbo Dreams
Dumbo Dreams invites the public to play with three giant, hand-painted fortune tellers. Each artist-guided reading requires at least two participants, creating a nostalgic experience and a glimpse into a hopeful future. Through playing with the fortune tellers, participants are reminded of their unique power and ability to dream positive outcomes for themselves, their communities, and the world.

Saturday, September 27: Maria Camia | An Ari and Cama Massage
An interactive performance-installation invites participants to step into the whimsical world of Ari and Cama—flower friend lovers brought to life through playful puppetry. Audience members become active co-creators by inserting their heads into puppet stations, animating the characters while the artist, costumed and seated at the center, reads from the Maricama Manifesta—a poetic and thought-provoking text that offers gentle “mind massages” through messages about the transformative power of art.

Saturday, October 4: Ashley Palmer | Safe Space
Safe Space is an interactive installation offering relief from the sensory overload of human-built environments. It responds to the idea of “relaxation deserts,” places without access to nature and saturated with noise, artificial light, and constant stimulation. Drawing on the memory of childhood forts, the piece invites visitors into a private space formed by foliage for quiet refuge.

Saturday, October 11: Sole Talk Youth
A day-long, live tap jam! Rooted in Black American history, Sole Talk Youth dancers improvise, share rhythm, and invite the public into a living, interactive dance tradition.

Saturday, October 18:Mike Durkin | Mending Quilt
Mike conducts story-sharing sessions centering around mending, while participants mend their clothing or supplies. With a partnership with Fabscrap, audiences and Mike focus on sustainability, in fashion and in community. Participants gather with torn clothes and items and Mike will teach and help mend those clothing items. Participants are invited to talk about other parts of their lives that need mending, relationships, habits, and other important issues the participant is engaged in, and contribute to making a collaborative quilt. Each participant will make a square which will be sewn into the quilt. This process of making will lead to an improvisation, a dance, some movement, music, a collaborative experience building off of the conversations and movements of making.
