Will Library reopens at 9am on Tuesday, April 21

Will Library closed due to an issue with defective electrical equipment. That equipment has since been replaced, passed City of Yonkers electrical inspection, and power has been restored by Con Edison. 

YPL thanks the Mayor's Office, the Department of Engineering, the Department of Buildings and Yonkers Fire Department for their help in resolving this issue. We also thank our patrons for their patience and understanding.

Program Description

Event Details

Beyond The Physical with Roshan Houshmand explores how Eastern spirituality intertwines with Eastern inspired art practices to heal loss and foster both reflection and compassion. Through the use of oil and acrylic paints, fabric, mixed media, and various other mediums,  Houshmand walks us through her process of healing and her experiences traveling around the world, emphasizing that art exists alongside all stages of one's life. Beyond The Physical looks at art as a meditative practice, investigating the tension between expression, experience, process, intention, and repetition. Houshmand examines how the universe’s spiritual energy threads through her own self, allowing the metaphysical and the physical to begin mirroring one another.
