This memorial honors Charles Dennis, co-founder of P.S. 122 and a significant figure in the development of downtown New York performance. A member of Robert Wilson’s Byrd Hoffman School of Byrds, Dennis performed in early works including the original *Einstein on the Beach* before joining fellow artists in establishing P.S. 122 in a former East Village public school. The commemorative program brings together collaborators and community members through performances, films, and shared recollections, reflecting on Dennis’s experimental ethos and enduring influence on the organization and the broader performance community.
