Sony Wonder Technology Lab: Free Entertainment For The Whole Family
In an era when four-year olds are playing games on touch screens and use words like “iPad” and “USB” the way we used “ball” and “tea set” back in the day, children may be pretty hard to impress. Fortunately there are places and people who, instead of competing with the advances of technology and the [...]
The New Museum Presents “The Ungovernables”
“There’s something happening here…What it is ain’t exactly clear.” This lyric hauntingly opens the anthem of a 1960s generation ready to challenge the status quo. This deceptively simple lyric became resoundingly resonant in my ears as I toured “The Ungovernables”, a remarkable artistic exhibit currently on display at the New Museum. All five floors are [...]
March Thru Art At The Metropolitan Museum Of Art
Do you ever notice that when you enter a museum, the volume of your voice immediately drops? We speak in hushed tones; we are instantly humbled.

It’s time for those stereotypes towards the Bronx to be challenged!

The Bronx Museum Presents “Bronx Talks: Bronx Stories”
You think you know all there is to the Bronx? If images of car shops and graffiti are dancing in your head, I urge you to think again. While, yes, these are both abundant in our Northern-most borough of New York City, there is also an abundance of other, less talked about stuff that graces [...]
The National Museum Of The American Indian
Happy Turkey Day, New Yorkers! In honor of Thanksgiving, I thought I’d review a museum dedicated to the hosts of the very first Thanksgiving…The National Museum Of The American Indian! Located in Lower-Manhattan, this museum features both permanent and temporary exhibitions, as well as a wide-range of public programs including music and dance performances, films, [...]
The Morgan Library & Museum Featuring Charles Dickens Exhibit
In a time when Kindles, Nooks, and iPads provide literary delight to both children and adults alike, there’s something to be said about holding a good ol’ fashioned book. The dog-earred pages, bits of highlighted text, and the covers that have been used as a coaster one-too-many times and are coffee-ringed just so…timeless, isn’t it? [...]
