A Queer Anti-Valentine's Day Healing
Forget Valentine’s Day! Join Renowned Artist Ace Lehner for A Queer Anti-Valentine’s Day Healing, at Ryan Van Der Hout’s Public Art Installation To Reflect Everything in Washington Square Park!
We're thrilled to announce the second activation of To Reflect Everything, a captivating 7-foot-tall mirrored sculpture by Ryan Van Der Hout that has mesmerized visitors since its unveiling in Washington Square Park on January 9.
The installation combines a disco ball's dazzling facets with a satellite's sleek form, inviting audiences to explore themes of reflection, connection, and transformation. On view until March 30, 2025, it joins the legacy of iconic works exhibited in Washington Square Park.
You’re invited to join for the next transformative event: A Queer Anti-Valentine's Day Healing on February 14th at 2:00 pm, led by renowned artist and scholar Ace Lehner. This site-specific performance creates a radical space for queer healing and communal care. Amid growing attacks on LGBTQIA+ rights, Lehner invites participants to engage in a powerful exploration of queerness, creativity, and connection as acts of resistance and joy.
About the Performance:
"The longer I live, the more deeply I learn that love — whether we call it friendship or family or romance — is the work of mirroring and magnifying each other's light."
― James Baldwin, Nothing Personal
Taking Baldwin as a starting place, Lehner's performance invites participants to seek a space of queer/trans communion, love, and reflection in the face of a world that has for centuries both celebrated and reviled us. Inspired by decades of queer activist organizing centered on Washington Square Park, Lehner embraces the wisdom of disco, dancing with queer ancestors, and imagining queer/trans futures, the performance guides the audience through practices of queer and trans love, joy, and self-evolution, transforming collective engagement into a porous space for radical disruption and resistance.

About California Naturals
Born in Summer 2023, California Naturals is a mass market lifestyle brand delivering thoughtfully-formulated, naturally-derived hair and body care products infused with a healthy dose of West Coast cool. Throughout the years of her career working in prestige beauty, founder Shelby Wild came to realize that clean, safe, and natural personal care wasn’t priced for everyone, and simply felt elitist. Coupled with the belief that getting ready should be a pleasant pause, not a daily labor - and that great products should work for the entire family - she set out to create luxury-level formulas, and then priced them all under $12. California Naturals believes this level of radical accessibility is long overdue, and is proud to offer a line of products that can live in everyone’s homes.
California Naturals, who recently partnered with actor Owen Wilson as an investor, advisor and Chief Shampoo Officer, uses food-grade fragrance (one of the only hair care brands to do so!) and 100% PCR packaging. Their formulas feature 99% naturally derived ingredients and are free from sulfates, parabens, and silicones. You can find California Naturals in Ulta & Target stores nationwide, select CVS stores and on TheCaliforniaNaturals.com.
Love in Times Square
There's no better place to say "I love you" than Times Square. On Valentine’s Day 2024, New Yorkers and visitors alike once again declared their love and celebrated their relationships at the Crossroads of the World through surprise proposals, weddings in the heart of Times Square, and a Vow Renewal Ceremony on Duffy Square's iconic Red Steps.
Renewal of Vows
Say "I do" all over again.
On Valentines Day each year, couples are invited to celebrate romance, passion, and each other in a one of a kind tour-de-love — the Vow Renewal Ceremony. This year, we invite couples of all ages and backgrounds to profess their love once again. A special invitation is extended to lovebirds whose kisses bridge boundaries, be they religious, political, racial, or national, as well as couples in wedding attire.
The Vow Renewal Ceremony begins at 6:00pm and will conclude by 6:30pm, giving you plenty of time to get a romantic dinner and perhaps catch a show afterwards.
You can also apply for a surprise proposal or even a wedding in the square, but applications have closed for both.
