Jessica Park – Her Story Told

Oliver Sacks, M.D. (1933-2015) was a physician, best-selling author, and a professor of neurology at the NYU School of Medicine. He has been referred to as the “poet laureate of medicine” by the New York Times. In his film, “Rage for Oder,” Sacks meets and tells the story of Jessica Park – an artist who lives with autism. It explores his encounter with her which offers profound insights into the nature of autism. On Saturday, May 5 at 2:00 pm, his movie “Rage for Order” screens at the Bennington Museum in the Ada Paresky Education Center. Join us in welcoming Tony Gengarelly, presenter, who for the past ten years has been the director of the Jessica Park Project, an educational and professional program at MCLA. This event is free, but does not include admission to the galleries.
