New York, with room to breathe
Three free places to spend time, from a SoHo art room to the Brooklyn waterfront. Pick one and let the day grow from there.
Culture New York
MoCADA's main gallery brings art from Africa and its diaspora into the L10 building, with exhibitions, conversation and a neighbouring café.
Use the current second-floor Lafayette Avenue address for this gallery. MoCADA also runs an Ubuntu Garden and other projects at separate locations; those are not interchangeable with the Culture Lab. Check the exhibition calendar for the work on view and any ticket requirements.
