Weekday Sketchers on the 2nd Ave Subway
Trick Question:
Where can you see major works of art by contemporary artist like Chuck Close, Sarah Sze, Jean Shin and Vik Muniz for the price of a subway ride?
Answer:
The 2nd Avenue Subway!
| Vik Muniz: 72nd Street Station |
The art work on the mezzanine level of the new 2nd Ave Subway stations is worth the trip from anywhere! And this week we will be making the trip and sketching the stations.
We will meet at the 96th Street Station on the Mezzanine Level of the Q Train. We will sketch for 40 minutes and get then ride to the next stop and so on and so on down to the 63rd Street Station. . Bring a stool and your lunch. Bathrooms should be available at all stations.
