So much to do...
The culture calendar is stacked the next few weeks:
A few summer holdovers end soon. The Waterfalls exhibit along the East River goes down for good Oct. 13. The fall weather is perfect for a stroll along the river, so check out one of the city’s largest public arts initiatives before it’s too late.
Speigelworld, the traveling party currently in the Seaport, features performances, live music, cocktails, a restaurant, and Tuesday and Thursday night DJ sessions. It ends Nov. 2, so party under the stars before it gets too cold!
A few exhibits debuted at local museums this week. The Museum of Jewish Heritage opened “Woman of Letters: Irène Némirovsky and Suite Française” on Sept. 24. The exhibit examines the life of the Russian-born Jewish author, who was deported to Auschwitz in July of 1942 and died a month later, leaving her only novel unfinished.
The National Museum of the American Indian celebrates Mexico with a film series that started yesterday, and runs until Oct. 28. There are daily screenings of the short films that focus on the indigenous experience in Mexico. The museum also hosts a Traditional Dance Social, featuring the Thunderbird Indian Dancers and Singers, on Oct. 18.

Where do all the Suits hang out??
What is the waterfall exhibit? I've heard about it a lot lately and have NO idea what it is.
I actually read Suite Francaise! They just recently (in the last two years or so) found her writings and put them together. She just had another book published. I forget the name, but it's a bit shorter and follows the same themes of WWII as the first.
the waterfalls exhibit is awesome and so beautiful. everyone should take a trek to the brooklyn bridge to check it out
The waterfall exibit is a beautiful looking thing, but I am glad that is going to get going. It seems like a large waste of money during a time when money is not that easy to come by. An in the endo of the day, I don't think the Brooklyn Bridge needs anything to make it look beautiful anyway.
