The Force is Strong at Nature’s Fury, the Museum of Natural History’s Latest Exhibit
An American Museum of Natural History exhibit opening Saturday, "Nature's Fury: The Science of Natural Disasters." Kids and adults both, can engage with and explore interactive exhibits, and learn how scientists are helping to make better predictions, to plan responses, and to prepare for future events. Nature’s Fury is probably best for older museum-goers, who will be able to fully appreciate and experience the exhibit’s content. It impressively packs in a lot of science and information, without being boring, and is sure to leave kids with a deeper understanding of the awesome power of nature, in every sense of the word.
Best NYC Workout Classes and Gyms for New Year’s Fitness Resolutions
Eating lots of delicious food is one of the things I enjoy most about the Thanksgiving-to-New Year's holiday season. Sure, all the time with family and friends and loved ones is pretty great, too... but the dinner tables with cookies galore, piles of cheeses and mountains of chocolates? Such a pleasure. But an unsustainable one! The time has come to start thinking about how to work off any extra, um, "LOVE" you might have acquired over the holidays. Here is a quick look at some of the gyms and classes around NYC that will help you reach those New Year’s fitness resolutions!
Mu Ramen, Long Island City’s Hottest Ramen Shop, Now Takes Reservations
Need the perfect remedy for these chilly winter nights? Slurp away the cold, dark heart of winter at Mu Ramen, now taking reservations in Long Island City. Starting off as a tiny pop-up in a bagel shop, then a six-seat table in the apartment of proprietors Joshua and Heidy Smookles, the duo have decided to find a permanent location, and settled on a small storefront on Jackson Avenue, Long Island City's busiest and most accessible thoroughfare. In exciting news, Mu Ramen recently amended its no-reservations policy in favor of accepting same-day reservations for up to four guests!
Take The Plunge At The 2015 Coney Island Polar Bear New Year’s Swim
For a city that has become the New Year's Eve capital of the planet--about one million people will pack themselves into Times Square for the ball drop this year, and another one BILLION will watch it on TV, making our midnight, their midnight--there are surprisingly few different types of things to do both that night and, especially, on New Years Day. The fancier-than-usual private party, the crowded club or restaurant or bar, the Central Park run and fireworks pretty much sums your Eve options*, and on the Day itself, well... usually some form of hibernation and/or hair-of-the-dog activity prevails. HOWEVER, there is one NYC New Year's tradition that veers completely from the norm - Coney Island's annual Polar Bear swim. Do it once, and it's a story you can tell the rest of your life.
Chris Ofili Brings Night, Day and a Whole Lot More to The New Museum
My love/be-disappointed-with relationship with the New Museum has been well documented: basically, the space is fantastic, I think, and they often do have terrific, vibrant shows, but it can seem small, and when the main exhibition's weak or sparse you feel like you've spent $16 for, like, 10 minutes of art. Anyway, the New […]
