One great thing about being a city girl is that you can enjoy the wide variety of museums that Manhattan has to offer. The admission prices are generally not expensive, so visiting the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the American Museum of Natural History, the MOMA, or the Whitney can prove to be a fulfilling and worthwhile way to spend your time. However, the MOMA offers a great deal. Every Friday evening, the MOMA has the Target Free Friday Nights which runs from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. The only downside to this freebie is that you cannot get these tickets in advance; which can lead to some waiting in lines. On the bright side, waiting in line can be a great way to talk to new people! Some highlighted exhibits that are going on right now at the MOMA include works by James Ensor, a Belgian artist who was key in the development of Expressionist art in the early twentieth century. His paintings are unique and dark – and definitely worth seeing. This exhibit is running through September 21. Another great exhibit to check out at the MOMA is the Cezanne and Picasso exhibit, which only runs until August 31. The MOMA is located at 11 West 53rd Street, so use your next free Friday night to check out these exhibits and others!
