Performer, composer, conductor Wycliffe Gordon headlines Red Hot Holiday Stomp this December at Jazz at Lincoln Center.
What are you wishing for? "Great musical performance takes people from being an individual to feeling as though everyone is together as one people at the end of the performance. If we can sustain that feeling and carry it over, freeze it into the New Year so we don’t go back, that would be a wonderful thing.”

Read My Pins: The Madeleine Albright Collection
Museum of Art & Design
Sep. 30, 2009 - Dec. 31, 2010
2 Columbis Circle,
Manhattan
at 59th Street
The first major museum exhibition of jewelry from the personal collection of Madeleine Albright featured in her book Read My Pins. The Madeleine Albright Collection features more than 200 pins, many of which Secretary Albright wore to communicate a message or a mood during her diplomatic tenure. The exhibition examines the collection for its historic significance as well as the expressive power of jewelry and its ability to communicate through a style and language of its own.
Tips: The museum's store is a Santa's bag of unusual, high end gifts. Also check out the studio spaces upstairs where New York artists in residence work on projects while they answer your most burning questions, like how to survive as an artist today.
