Leigh converts the Stuyvesant Mansion in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood into a health and wellness space for a day, inviting massage therapists, community acupuncturists, performers, nurses, insurance navigators, HIV testers, and doulas. The installation honors the lineage of the Black Panther Party's free medical clinics.
