You're not going to let a little snow put you off exploring, are
you? Of course you're not, which is why we've put together this list

Stripped back to its minimalist best, Katya Kabanova is a tale of
love, passion and devastating guilt. But this is no play, it's an opera,
so expect awe-inspiring music that brings the story to life before your
eyes.

January
brings new life to the New York art scene. Galleries are filled and curated
with creatives trying to make sense of the corrupt power and the pain these

ourselves? Visit these exhibitions this month to explore this delicate
balance.

Imagine This...
Sponsored by:
Living
in New York City can be pretty demanding and having a ton of student loans
just adds to the pressure.
We’re constantly
putting money towards commuting, groceries, clothes, and rent that looms over
our heads every month.
Your loans helped
you achieve a dream and now, with CommonBond, it’s time to set them free.

Short Story Selection
Every
city feels as if it is an entity in and of itself, a being created by the
millions of lives that inhabit it presently and have in the past. In
Jemisin's short story written, we follow a young black homeless man just
trying to survive in NYC.
An older man named
Paulo helps him from time to time, buying him coffee and sandwiches in
exchange for someone to listen to his rants. One morning, Paulo’s rant goes
into the inner workings of the city, how it breathes and is ready for someone
to help it live.
Our main character
is wary of the breathing sounds he hears but assumes being homeless for so
long has warped his mind.
