The Metropolitan Museum: Harlem Renaissance (April 9th)

$144.00

Cost includes transportation, entrance fees, guided tours, snacks and tips.

Come with us to The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and see the groundbreaking exhibition “The Harlem Renaissance and Transatlantic Modernism.” The exhibit explores the many ways in which Black artists portrayed everyday modern life in the new Black cities that took shape in the 1920s-40s, in Harlem and elsewhere, as African Americans migrated away from the South. We will have a guided tour of the exhibit, which is the first major survey on this subject by a New York museum since 1987. After the guided tour, you’ll have time to further explore the museum and have lunch on your own either in one of the museum’s eateries or in a nearby restaurant of your choosing. To conclude our day, we will walk four blocks to a nearby historic church, with a lovely sanctuary inspired by the Sainte-Chappelle in Paris.

Bus leaves Cheltenham High School promptly at 7 a.m.
