New York definitely feels back to normal now and having the @metmuseum open again definitely helps. I paid a visit yesterday with @hungryeditor and we loved being able to explore our favorite areas. The only place that was a little too crowded and not as socially distanced as I would have liked was the new Making the Met 1870-2020 exhibition. But we had other galleries completely to ourselves which was lovely. Put it on your must visit list this fall. #metmuseum #met150 #metstories #newyorkisback #theyreopen (at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFDWIPBHXRm/?igshid=1dpbkdog56epq

A few Met favorites.

Today marks the 150th anniversary of the @metmuseum. I’ve been visiting the Met since my teens and I have so many wonderful memories of wandering around the galleries and getting lost. One visit led me into Arms and Armor which was awe inspiring. One of my earliest memories was seeing Jacqueline Kennedy: The White House Years costume exhibition right before I moved to NYC in 2001. Since then, I’ve attended countless exhibitions. One of my favorites was Public Parks, Private Gardens: Paris to Provence from which I’ve purchased countless boxes of notecards. As a @metmembers, I love popping in during the week to visit the rooms in Wrightsman Galleries and paintings in the Lehman Galleries. One of the things I miss most under quarantine in New York right now is being able to find solace in the arms of the @metmuseum. Until then, I’ll be reading all the books I’ve bought over the years and looking forward to when we meet again. #metmuseum #mymetstory #Met150 #nyc #uppereastside (at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-7-eYWHWme/?igshid=mdv0lfo2nvdp

The Metropolitan Museum was founded 150 years ago today, on April 13, 1870. Ever since I moved to Manhattan back in the 80's, it's been a favorite destination where I was sure I would always find inspiration. Here is a tribute to the Museum, in my Mpala Tano series dedicated to New York city cultural landmarks. Oil on canvas, 2014, 31" x 23" (repost). #met #metropolitanmuseum #themetropolitanmuseumofart #met150 #MyMetStory #mpalatano #newyorkcityart #nycart #reflection #oilpainting #fredericlere (at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-7dnDdHkbq/?igshid=jock6it6jj03
