Here is a sampling of the week’s events and how to tune in (all times are Eastern). Note that events are subject to change after publication.
Monday
Start your week off by exploring the paintings of Philip Guston with Hauser and Wirth’s exhibition “What Endures.” The featured works were selected by Mr. Guston’s daughter, Musa Mayer, who also is the president of The Guston Foundation. Created during the political unrest of the 1970s, his art ruminates on loss and endurance.

Tuesday
Spark your young reader’s entrepreneurial side with a conversation with 15-year-old Mikaila A. Ulmer, the author of “Bee Fearless: Dream Like a Kid.” When Ms. Ulmer was 4 years old, she was stung by bees twice in one week. To get past her fear, her parents encouraged her to research bees — and she became obsessed with them. She’s now the founder and chief executive of Me & the Bees, a Texas-based lemonade company that uses honey in its recipe. This virtual talk is hosted by Politics and Prose bookstore in Washington, and is best for children ages 10 and up.

Once you’re all stitched out, write the story of a female activist who inspires you. The New York City Department of Records and Information Services aims to create an archive of women from around the world — living or dead, famous or not — who have effected change with their activism. Your nominee must identify as a woman who’s contributed to making change in some way: submit her name, birthday, a short summary of her accomplishments and photos (if you have them).
