Multi TRaC begins!

And we're kicking it off with a bang.  After introductions we'll be opening up a copy of Time Out New York and walking down to the Chelsea District to check out some galleries.   Remember, you can do that anytime!  Gallery hopping is free; it's one of the most cost effective ways to find out what's going on in the contemporary art world.

Take, for example, this piece by Anselm Reyle, which is installed at Gagosian on 24th Street:

Yes, we will go check this out.

Then we're going to go up on the High Line, a public park built on a 1.45-mile-long elevated rail structure running from Gansevoort Street to 34th Street on Manhattan's West Side.

It used to look like this:


You'll see what it looks like now.


So that's our first day!  Here's directions so you know where to go for your workshops every week.....

DIRECTIONS to the new High 5 HQ: 
520 Eighth Avenue, 3rd Floor
New York, NY 10018
map it here.

The easiest way is to take the A, C, or E train to 34th Street, then walk up 8th Ave to building #520.  We're inbetween 36th and 37th Street.  Look for the revolving door.  Take the elevator to the 3rd floor and head to Studio A.  (From week 3 on, we'll be in studio C!)

The building looks like this:


...but that's kind of what all old New York buildings look like, so just look for the number and the revolving door.


Happy first day!
