The Lincoln Center: Out of Doors Free Summer Festival Next Week!
The New York Summer Festival Season is Jam Packed There are lots of great free outdoor music series every year here in the big town, and Summer 2012 has been no exception. Celebrate Brooklyn in Prospect Park has been a blast, with a bunch of good shows still to come, including The Head and the […]
Kayaking in NYC: Downtown Boathouse & More NYC Kayaking
It’s been a couple of years since we’ve taken advantage of the excellent, still-going-strong free kayaking in NYC program, courtesy of the non-profit, all-volunteer organization, the Downtown Boathouse. But two years is too long! So we’re getting back in the paddle sometime soon, maybe even this weekend if the weather holds…
MoMA PS1 2012: Warm Up 2012, Wendy by HWKN, and M. Wells
We love MoMA PS1 any time of year: the Museum of Modern Art's Long Island City outpost–just a stop or two away from Glenwood's luxury New York City apartments in Midtown Manhattan–not only consistently puts on interesting (if occasionally uneven) contemporary art exhibitions, but the building itself, a former NYC public school, is enormously appealing […]
Lunch Hour NYC: A Fascinating Exhibition at the New York Public Library
Add it to the long, long, long list of reasons to be grateful for New York City: turns out, among the thousands of other amazing things about this town, we also invented lunch! Well, sort of. According to this terrific new exhibition, Lunch Hour NYC at the New York Public Library–the main branch, aka the […]
Amazing artwork alert: Lincoln Center opens Christian Marclay “The Clock” on July 13
About a year and a half ago, in February of 2011, Christian Marclay's spellbinding, 24-hour movie The Clock played to packed houses at the Paula Cooper Gallery, day after day and, on weekends, all through the night. Even at two in the morning, during one of the most relentlessly bitter winters in memory, hours-long lines […]
Christopher Boffoli Photography: Edible Words at Winston Wachter Fine Art
Ok, so this is just a fun idea, cleverly and, with their vibrant color schemes and soft focus, beautifully executed. Christopher Boffoli's new exhibition at Winston Wachter Fine Art in Chelsea is titled Edible Worlds, and the concept is simple: put tiny people on top of common fruits, veggies, baked goods, whatever, go in close […]
Photoville NYC 2012: An Exhibition at Brooklyn Bridge Park
There was so many fun things going on in the city last weekend (to sum it up: Le Grand Continental at the Seaport was totally endearing, the Coney Island Mermaid Parade was an absolute blast; the Staten Island Lumen Festival was not worth the ferry schlep, we had to skip Pride on Sunday to pull […]
Churchill: The Power of Words on Exhibit at the Pierpont Morgan Library
For history buffs, Anglophiles, and all appreciators of resonant, meaty language, Churchill: The Power of Words, now on exhibition at the lovely, under-visited-by-us Pierpont Morgan Library (which, by the way, features some of the most beautiful New York City Architecture), is pretty much a must-see. Because even if Winston Churchill wasn't an extremely influential figure […]
Summer Dance Parties in NYC: Dance in NYC
So you think you can dance? No matter what luxury Manhattan real estate you are located in, this is your chance! In addition to the great outdoor movie festivals in NYC, and free live music in NYC–Summerstage in Central Park, the River to River Festival NYC on both sides on the island, Celebrate Brooklyn in […]
Outdoor Movies NYC: Your Guide to NYC Free Summer Films
There are more free NYC street festivals, concert series, and NYC outdoor movies these days than we can keep track of, which is great news, of course, because what could be better than grabbing the kids, or a crew of friends, or that special someone and enjoying this beautiful city at night, outside, with top-notch […]
