Tomorrow (Saturday, May 18th) is the 10th Annual Art Museum Day.
A number of museums in the city have special events and pricing for the day!
Participating NYC museums include:
- American Folk Art Museum
- Brooklyn Museum
- The Corning Museum of Glass
- The Frick Collection
- Grey Art Gallery, New York University
- Guggenheim Museum
- The Jewish Museum
- The Museum at FIT
- Museum of Arts and Design
Brooklyn Museum’s “Garry Winogrand: Color” and Guggenheim’s “Implicit Tensions: Mapplethorpe Now” are just two of the intriguing exhibits to take in.
The event, created by The Association of Art Museum Directors (AAMD) was launched:
“to underscore the ways in which art museums foster community, providing crucial opportunities for visitors of all ages to learn and be inspired by the limitlessness of what centuries of peoples and cultures have created. While many communities have celebrations that involve museum participation, Art Museum Day is an opportunity for our member institutions to coordinate and give back, providing everything from free admission to special programs.”
