Lenny Kravitz to be part of ribbon-cutting for new ‘Path of Liberty’ exhibition celebrating what unites America

The highly anticipated immersive public art installation “Path of Liberty: That Which Unites US” is set to open to the public next week — and rock icon Lenny Kravitz is expected to part of an exclusive opening ceremony.

Made possible by The Soloviev Foundation, “Path of Liberty” spans over six acres of Manhattan’s East Side from 38th to 41st Street on First Avenue, creating an immersive journey through 250 years of American history. The exhibit opens to the public on May 15, the experience highlights the nation’s progress, challenges, and triumphs through photographs and interviews on 41 large screens.

“Art has the power to bring communities together and open our eyes to our collective strength,” said Stefan Soloviev, principal of The Soloviev Foundation and Chairman of the Soloviev Group. “We are proud to support an installation that showcases 250 years of American history and fosters meaningful connections and reflection. Path of Liberty is a tribute to our shared ideals and a reminder that liberty is an ongoing journey that requires all of us to take part.”

On May 8, The Soloviev Foundation will host an invitation-only ribbon-cutting ceremony for the exhibition, which will welcome special guests and notable community figures, including multiple GRAMMY-winning artist Kravitz.

Kravitz served as a member of the distinguished panel for the Future Generations Essay Contest and at the ribbon cutting, he will speak on the enduring theme of freedom and join The Soloviev Foundation in announcing the essay contest’s student winners.

“Freedom is a vital, underlying right. These students have exercised their freedom in a thoughtful way that should be a model for all of us. I’m grateful for the Path of Liberty to help us reflect on America’s rich history as we approach its 250th anniversary,” said Kravitz.

“Path of Liberty: That Which Unites US is a call to come together through art, history, and shared experiences,” said Michael Hershman, CEO of Soloviev Group. “We are proud to provide a platform for voices that speak to the enduring relevance of liberty and equality and create an opportunity for people to look back on our past and look forward to a future of collaboration and mutual understanding.”

“Path of Liberty” was designed by multi-specialty creative studio C&G Partners and directed by award-winning filmmaker, director, and producer Daniella Vale. The installation also features an immersive film experience produced in collaboration with the Museum of the American Revolution and Donna Lawrence Productions.

The installation will be open free of charge on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings from 8 to 11 p.m. Reservations can be made at pathoflibertynyc.com, walk-ups are welcome
