Co-Captain Sara J. suggested we go check out the Big Bambú installation at the Met so that's what we are doing! (It's also Matthew G.'s birthday that day!)
Who: You
What: Climbing through the bamboo installation built above the Met's viewing deck.
When: Saturday July 17th- Arriving at the Big Bambu ticket counter (at 81st street, OUTSIDE the Met) before noon. I will be there at 11am to try and help save us a spot in line. Come keep me company!
Where: The Metropolitan Museum of Art
Wear: MUST wear rubber soled shoes. Sandals and leather soled shoes are not allowed. And no skirts/short-shorts because you will be climbing above people's heads.
Why: Large scale interactive art is hella rad
Wallet: Suggested museum donation is $20. Extra money for bodega snacks afterwards.
What else: We are planning on picnicking/snacking afterwards in Central park. Consider bringing some snackies and storing them in coat check during the tour.
What else part 2: The ticketing for this event is a bit tricky. It is on a first come first serve, one ticket per person, basis. So, alas, we will have to do some waiting in line and may be split between two tour groups. Read the Met's website for a complete explanation.
