Trinity Church Wall Street, in collaboration with Jazz House Kids, presents a free performance of The Steve Turre Sextet. Over the course of a remarkable career spanning more than five decades, virtuoso Steve Turre has proven he is one of the foremost masters of the trombone, and a pioneer of using seashells as musical instruments. In addition to being a member of the Saturday Night Live Band, jazz icon Turre has performed with numerous preeminent artists including Ray Charles, Art Blakey, Dizzy Gillespie, McCoy Tyner, Herbie Hancock, Tito Puente, and more. This performance presents works from his upcoming recording on Smoke Sessions, called “Generations,” and features a band of some of the most celebrated jazz musicians.

Today, approximately 40 percent of the people in women’s prisons identify as queer. Hear from bestselling author and historian Hugh Ryan as he shares insights from his new book, The Women's House of Detention: A Queer History of a Forgotten Prison.

This singular history of a prison, and the queer women and trans people held there, is a window into the policing of queerness and radical politics in the twentieth century. From the lesbian communities forged through the Women’s House of Detention to the turbulent prison riots that preceded Stonewall, this is this story of one building and much more: the people it caged, the neighborhood it changed, and the resistance it inspired.

Join Hugh Ryan for a book talk and conversation with the Very Rev. Dr. Kelly Brown Douglas, Trinity’s Theologian-in-residence, and take part in audience Q&A and a book signing. Books may be purchased here.
