That 70's Show - New York City in the 1970s

Date: Friday, March 9th - April 15th
Time: M–F: 10am–7pm; Weekends: 11am–7pm
Location: The powerHouse Arena (37 Main Street at Water Street, DUMBO)
Cost: Free

A serious who's who of 70's street innovators from Dondi White to Maripol are featured in this decade long retrospective of NYC at the powerHouse Arena. "That 70s Show is an ode to a city long forgotten, a city on the brink of bankruptcy, rife with anarchy, brimming with uninhibited flavor and fearless adventure: New York City in the 70s. The exhibition pays tribute to the people of New York—from the pimps and the pushers to the police and the politicians, the musicians and the artists to everyday citizens—whose perseverance during these years reveals the true spirit of our city. That 70s Show takes us back to a time of crisis and creativity, anxiety and artistry, madness and majesty—when genius burned up the sky like the Bronx on fire."
