MoMA Free Art Fridays

Once upon a time, I lived and worked in the city that Target built. Well, considering Target was founded in 1900s and Minneapolis is definitely a little older, I should probably take that statement back. Either way, Target loves Minneapolis. Minneapolis loves Target. It's mutual. And while in Minneapolis, I recall loving "Free Art" nights at The Walker Art Center,courtesy of everybody's favorite mass merchandiser from the Midwest.

Well, little did I know this program had been extended into my very own backyard at one of my very own favorite modern art museums!

For those of you that reside in the Big Apple or are making plans to visit the City That Never Sleeps, it's already assumed that you'll be arranging a visit to the Museum of Modern Art (otherwise know in acronym form as the MoMA), so why not stop in free of charge? On Friday evenings from 4:00 to 8:00 p.m., you can explore the wonders of Picasso and Mondrian on Target's dime. And if you don't like art very much, the place has very comfortable benches and clean bathrooms, so that's good too.

The line may be long (as in, around the block from 53rd Street, up 6th Avenue, and back around to the 54th Street entrance), but the line moves quickly. Bring hot cocoa and a friend, or just the cocoa if you don't have interesting friends, and it'll be worth the wait.
