The Hendrick I. Lott House, one of New York City’s oldest surviving structures, is set to become the first museum in Brooklyn’s Marine Park neighborhood. Built in 1720 as a Dutch Colonial farmhouse and expanded in 1800, the house remained in the Lott family until 1989. After the city purchased it in 2002 and completed exterior renovations in 2013, plans are now underway to open its interior to the public for the first time, preserving its unique wallpaper and agricultural history.
A major retrospective of David Lynch's artwork, titled 'Up in Flames', will open at Prague's DOX Centre for Contemporary Art on June 19, 2025. The exhibition spans Lynch's visual work from the late 1960s to the present, including drawings, lithographs, photographs, and experimental films. Lynch was directly involved in planning the show in 2024, meeting with curator Otto M. Urban to approve the concept and selection of works before his sudden death on January 16, 2025. His estate worked with DOX to reschedule the opening and ensure the exhibition meets his standards.

DCAA takes possession on August 1 and hopes to host a grand opening that week. The project is funded through grants, donations, memberships, and corporate sponsorships, with about $38,000 raised toward an estimated $80,000 renovation cost.
