Both events will take place at the museum’s Midtown Manhattan location at 25 West 52 Street. The programs expand the institution’s ongoing 50th anniversary celebration.

“These programs are the perfect addition to an already stellar lineup of December events at The Paley Museum,” said Maureen J.

THE BEATLES ON THE BEATLES: A SPECIAL SCREENING OF “ANTHOLOGY: EPISODE ONE”

Premiering in the 1990s, The Beatles Anthology was notable for presenting the band’s history in their own words using archival material, live performances, studio recordings, and previously unreleased footage. The newly restored, expanded nine-episode series will begin streaming on Disney+ on November 26. The Paley Museum will screen Episode One, followed by a conversation featuring Andrea Dresdale (ABC News), Tom Frangione (SiriusXM’s The Beatles Channel), Joe Scarborough (Morning Joe), special guest Max Weinberg of The E Street Band, and moderator Jordan Runtagh (iHeartMedia / Rolling Stone). The program is supported by The Blanche and Irving Laurie Foundation.

PERCY JACKSON AND THE OLYMPIANS: AN INSIDE LOOK AT SEASON 2

Season 2 of the Disney+ series continues Percy Jackson’s story as he travels into the Sea of Monsters in search of Grover and the Golden Fleece. The Paley Museum will host a screening of Episode 3 and a conversation featuring cast members Walker Scobell, Leah Sava Jeffries, Aryan Simhadri, Charlie Bushnell, Dior Goodjohn, Daniel Diemer, and moderator Lin-Manuel Miranda, who appears in the series as Hermes.

AN EVENING WITH Bob Costas

The previously announced program An Evening with Bob Costas will take place on December 9 at 6:30 p.m. Costas will reflect on his career, discuss the role of radio in his work, and announce a donation of interviews from his series Costas Coast to Coast to the Paley Archive. The event is supported by The Blanche and Irving Laurie Foundation.
