Banksy Museum NYC

After successful stints across the globe, The Banksy Museum has finally arrived in NYC. The prolific exhibition recreates the revolutionary art of the world's most famous-yet-ananomous street artist. The immersive experience guides visitors through an exhibit of Banky's well known murals, many of which have now been dismantled and/or whitewashed. Features also include the artist's lesser known, but equally as poignant, studio work, plus animated visuals and videos. Now open to the public, The Banksy Museum is the largest Banksy exhibition in  the world.

Big Thanks to the entire team over at Either Sherman & Associates for making this feature possible!

Edible Attire

Gaining only five pounds in the process, tech-met-art-met-fashion-met-culinary genius as this delicious first bite in the industry.  Her next project, to be unveiled on Tuesday, May 13 and named Ingredients of NYC (information for attendance: here), explores the culinary culture, the energy and empowerment of the city, and what exactly fuels New York.
