Fremin is delighted to present our first exhibition of 2026, "Everything is a rectangle until it isn't".

On view from January 8th through March 1st with an artist opening reception on Thursday, January 8th from 6–8 p.m.
RSVP at info@fremingallery.com
Romanian artist Alex Voinea paints at the fault line between discipline and chaos. Rooted in early experiments with liquid paint on vibrating surfaces, his abstract and breathtaking paintings capture moments of pure kinetic energy and emotion. Against ethereal, fading background, Voinea unleashes gestures that feel both meticulously precise and effortlessly fluid. His brushstrokes, drippings, and splashes merge together into a living breathing ecosystem of color, capturing an experience of movement frozen in time. Each canvas becomes a moment of energy stilled, an excavation of movement before it disappears back into the air. Voinea’s worlds feel alive: lush ecos…

Annual MLK Shabbat Service at Historic Temple
On January 16 at 7 p.m. Dr. Bill Tinglin will speak at Temple Beth-El of Great Neck’s annual MLK Shabbat service. This service will commemorate Dr. King's historic civil rights speech presented at Temple Beth-El in the 1960s. As the reverend’s important words continue to resonate with the synagogue, the community and the country, Temple Beth-El is honored to once again welcome the entire community to memorialize Dr. King and continue sharing his message—which is as relevant today as it was many years ago. This event is free and is open to the Long Island community. Temple Beth-El is located at 5 Old Mill Road in Great Neck.
I'm hoping you will find value in publicizing this very special event. In the past, speakers such as Attorney General Letitia James, Governor Kathy Hochul and others have spoken at this important event. I'm happy to provide additional information or discuss how the station can help share this information with the community.

Hank Azaria & The EZ Street Band is a labor of love for Azaria, a life-long Springsteen fan. “I’ve never worked harder preparing for any role than I did in perfecting a singing vocal impression of Bruce,” said Azaria.
Azaria is an acclaimed actor and voice artist, perhaps best known for his decades of work on The Simpsons. Now he’s using his voice in a new and different way, and having a blast entertaining people in a live, concert setting. Azaria spent months creating an impression of Bruce’s distinctive speaking cadence and singing ‘voice’ to conceive the tribute show. As Azaria told Rolling Stone, “I think of it as a theatrical performance,” he says. “I’m staying in character as Bruce even though I’m telling stories about myself. It’s a performance piece, but I’m not a Bruce impersonator.” The tribute performance itself is a joyful, full-tilt rock ’n roll event, and Azaria’s physicality and flair are a true homage to Bruce. Azaria channels many familiar components of Bruce Springsteen’s iconography: intima…

“Cows that type? Hens on strike! Whoever heard of such a thing!” Farmer Brown cries.
When his granddaughter Jenny comes for a visit, Farmer Brown declares the farm a tech-free zone. He takes her laptop in the cold barn with the shivering cows who use her computer to type messages requesting blankets.
“No way,” replies Farmer Brown. “No blankets!”
So the cows go on strike, and the chickens join them in solidarity. No blankets? No milk! No eggs!
Will Farmer Brown give in to the animals’ demands? Will Jenny get her computer back? Find out in a hilariously moving musical about negotiation and compromise, based on the Caldecott Honor Book by Doreen Cronin and Betsy Lewin.

At the Tenement Museum, we think a lot about how immigrants created new homes for themselves in the United States. But we don’t often discuss what people did before they immigrated, and what they took on the journey. In their new book, Rituals of Migration: Italians and Irish on the Move, historians Kevin Kenny and Maddalena Marinari explore Irish and Italian traditions when leaving their homeland and arriving in the United States. What objects did people bring for protection? How did those left behind mark the occasion of a loved one leaving for the United States? What did people do if they returned to their home country? Join Kenny and Marinari for a panel conversation on the book and its importance for immigration history.
For the in-person program, ticket price includes Kenny and Marinari’s book, Rituals of Migration. After the conversation, enjoy mini-tours, a reception, and a special 25% off your purchase in the Tenement Museum Shop for the evening.
