The evening, hosted by Paola Prestini, builds a live approach to these photographs with a creative team and artists who will bring these photographs from the book to life, again. Featuring lighting design from Bruce Steinberg, and projection design of Jill's photographs by Camilla Tassi, these memories once captured through Jill's eye will be reborn via projected imagery in harmony with special performances—performances will include Sister Sylvester / Kathryn Hamilton, Anthony Roth Costanzo, Brandon Maddox and Kevin Newbury, Rinde Eckert, Magos Herrera, Alicia Hall Moran, Jeffrey Zeigler, and Brooklyn Rider. In addition to the release of this book and the moving tributes from these artists, we will also be celebrating Jill's milestone 75th birthday; making this a night to toast the enduring legacy and creative footprint Jill has bestowed upon us all.
