Acclaimed contemporary artist Ernesto Neto’s largest and most complex installation to date will overtake Park Avenue Armory’s vast drill hall with an epic work to be touched and sensed by the viewer. On consecutive Saturdays, NYC’s most sought-after teaching artists will lead elementary school-aged children and their parents in art-making, storytelling, theater and dance through this immersive installation.
Park Avenue Armory is a newly launched organization whose mission is to revitalize one of America’s historic treasures as a dynamic alternative arts space unlike any other in New York.
