Join us for the afternoon at Manhattan College on Monday, May 20th, at 1:00 pm to learn how you can bring the principles of Catholic social thought into your classroom and campus ministry through the life of Dorothy Day. Our time together will include a talk by Dorothy's granddaughter, activist Martha Hennessy, a visit to our educational exhibit on Dorothy's life, conversation about incorporating community-based and service-learning into your curriculum, and time to hear from you about the most significant social issues for your students.

    Manhattan College’s O’Malley Library Gallery will host Kristi Pfister’s “Radical Action: Tracing Dorothy Day” from September 18th, 2023 through June of 2024. “Radical Action”  is an installation of suspended fabric columns, marble mosaics, and mixed media work that explores the duality of Day's radical actions and her spiritual self. The mosaic's concrete strength contrasts with translucent columns on which Pfister has traced patterned fragments of drawings. A large-scale painted scroll presents Day as a modern-day caryatid leading a procession of activism.


    You can come experience the exhibit at the O’Malley library gallery (4513 Manhattan College Parkway, Bronx, NY) daily this fall between 10 am and 6 pm.
