SUMMARY:Screening - FILIPIÑANA
DESCRIPTION:17-year-old Isabel navigates the opulent pavilions and lush green landscapes of Dr. Palanca’s luxury golf course as a newly-hired “tee girl.” Meticulously composed\, highly stylized\, and guided by precisely choreographed movement and deadpan delivery\, FILIPIÑANA unfolds through the gradual accumulation of everyday encounters between staff and the wealthy clients of this secluded country club on the outskirts of Manila. When she attempts to return a lost golf club\, Isabel uncovers a dark underbelly beneath the club’s pristine surfaces\, in this sweltering\, pastel-colored fairy tale of class division\, institutional patriarchy\, and invisible violence. \nUse code AAARI for $4 discount.

The series provides a platform for extraordinary artists and serves as a vital outdoor venue for a wide array of New York’s cultural institutions. No tickets needed\, just show up on the lawn! \nGrace Kelly is a saxophonist\, singer\, songwriter\, and bandleader who has performed over 1\,500 concerts in more than 40 countries. As a bandleader\, she has appeared at major venues and festivals\, including the Kennedy Center\, Moscow Symphony Hall\, and the Montreal\, Newport\, and Montreux Jazz Festivals.

Her work explores our relationship to self\, each other\, and the natural world\, enveloping listeners in a cathartic dimension\, providing “haunting relief” (Kajal Mag)\, and forging a new sound.

SUMMARY:Aesthetic Intelligence: Building a New Generation of Global Brands
DESCRIPTION:In an era of rapid technological change and economic uncertainty\, a company’s identity has become one of its most valuable strategic assets. To succeed\, companies must do far more than command attention. They must inspire trust\, convey meaning\, create memorable experiences and forge lasting connections with customers. This program brings together two leaders in luxury and branding to explore the concept of Aesthetic Intelligence and discuss how Japan’s distinctive traditions of design\, craftsmanship\, and cultural heritage can serve as the foundation for a new generation of world-class brands. Through conversation and case studies\, participants will gain practical insights into how aesthetics can strengthen brand identity\, secure a competitive advantage\, and drive long-term business growth.

SUMMARY:Play - The Cherry Orchard
DESCRIPTION:Considered one of the great plays of the modern era\, Anton Chekhov’s final play about a family on the edge of ruin is radically reimagined by acclaimed director and dramatist Simon Stone\, who returns to the Armory following his blistering Obie-Award winning take on Federico García Lorca’s Yerma (2018). His refreshing adaptation resets the action from Russia to a rapidly transforming modern-day Seoul\, South Korea\, where the original noble siblings are now corporate heirs struggling to adapt to a world that has moved on without them\, suffocated by a rising middle class and wealthy self-made entrepreneurs. Caught between the past and the present\, hope and despair\, tradition and innovation\, the chaebol family is forced to grapple with the inevitable forces of change.

SUMMARY:Race and Space: How Laws Create and Impact Asian Spaces
DESCRIPTION:Since its origins\, America has existed as a racially segregated country. For most of its history\, the law has been used to create and enforce this segregation. With the Reconstruction era’s 13th\, 14th\, and 15th Amendments\, or as historian Eric Foner calls it\, the “second founding\,” the U.S. abolished slavery\, granted citizenship\, and enshrined equality before the law\, at least in principle. And yet\, in fundamental ways\, we still live in a racially segregated country and city. Today\, many Asian New Yorkers shop\, eat\, worship\, reside\, or learn in spaces where they are surrounded by others who look like them. \nThis panel explores several distinct spaces where Asian New Yorkers gather and examines how laws and policies have defined\, developed\, policed\, and shaped these Asian spaces. Featured locations include massage parlors or spas\, New York City’s multiple Chinatowns\, takeout restaurants\, and specialized public high schools. Panelists will discuss how different areas of law such as education law\, criminal law\, immigration law\, and zoning laws impact these places.

SUMMARY:Rising Up to Serve: Leveraging Bar Associations for Community-Centered Lawyering
DESCRIPTION:This panel examines how attorneys and advocates—particularly through bar associations like AABANY—can serve as a critical bridge between legal professionals and the unique legal needs faced by AANHPI and immigrant communities in New York City. Drawing on experiences across immigration\, housing\, employment\, and community advocacy\, the program will explore how attorneys can leverage AABANY and allied bar associations to engage in community-centered lawyering\, respond to emerging issues through coordinated advocacy\, and build partnerships with grassroots organizations. The panel will highlight practical strategies for using bar association participation\, not only for professional development but also as a vehicle for collective action\, leadership development\, and meaningful community impact. \nThe program will include practical frameworks\, real-world scenarios\, and actionable strategies that attorneys can apply in their own practices.
