I sat at work eating a slightly over ripe grapefruit whilst looking at those burgers and had to put in some time off requests.

Never a bad idea, April May June and September October my fave months, Spring and Fall.

I think I am going to aim for September I have requested some September holiday so fingers crossed


I guess I will most likely be using the subway most trip (or walking ). Any areas to avoid if travelling solo?

Bronx, but no need to go there.

[flatcolor]

A few things I've noticed that no one has mentioned.

Bronx: Tuff City Tattoo. They usually have hand painted canvas' from the likes of Ces, Serve and other heavy hitters in the graff game for reasonable prices.
South Bronx: WallWorks www.wallworksny.com/about

Soho: The Scrap Yard. (Canal St and West Broadway) An absolute NYC institution for graffiti supplies, magazines, markers, paint, t-shirts and even hand painted works and hand painted scale subway trains. You never know who you'll run into there, as there's always writers hanging around.
If you're posh, you can stay at the Soho Grand next door, it's a great hotel and centrally located to a lot of great stuff in Tribeca, Soho and Chinatown.
Must have food in Soho: Jeju Noodle Bar. It's authentic, reasonably priced and has a Michelin Star. No brainer if you're into that style of food

Williamsburg: I agree, with others. It's pretty played out.
I don't mind the Turkeys Nest shout out earlier, it's a decent dive bar, but trust me, don't get that gross ass frozen margarita.
I would highly suggest grabbing a Sicilian slice to go from Anna Maria at Bedford and 7th though.

East Village: Eric Firestone Gallery. Futura works on display during April

Enjoy your trip!

My holiday finally got approved so I will be going in September.

I have never been that far away, alone before. So it will be an adventure. Thanks for the suggestions

Newest exhibition just launched in Brooklyn details below! Give me a heads up if you can come through and spread the word!

BROOKLYN BOUND EXHIBIT TO OPEN MARCH 4
STREET SIGNS, METROCARDS, MAPS & MORE
TAKE HOME A PIECE OF NEW YORK CITY!

Brooklyn Bound highlighting old school graffiti artists and the next generation of graffiti writers presents collectible works using mediums including subway and street signs, maps, and toy train cars. Curated by Laura Lulu Reich and Koz, the art show will take place from March 4 – April 2, 2023, at the Gallery at City Point, located at 445 Albee Square West in Downtown Brooklyn.

The gallery exhibit is curated to present the best graffiti artists – past and present - recreating New York streets and subways collateral. Highlights to include street signs from subway stations including 14th Street, Fulton Street and 207th Street, painted and tagged by EASY, COPE2 and T-Kid, NYC subway maps colorfully plastered with paint by Zimad and Wane COD, framed MetroCard’s featured anime characters.

The co-curators’ approach to this exhibit was inspired by images and typography utilized on signs in the streets and subway system, which is synonymous to NY an democratizes the city. It doesn’t matter what tax bracket you fit into, or neighborhood you grew up in, signs are meant to be understood by the masses.

Reich comments, “Graffiti may not be embraced as easily as the signs we observe regularly, but those who contribute to this art movement continue to grab the attention of the world by storm.” Koz, adds, “Street signs, subway signs, and maps in New York used to be the only way to find your way throughout the city. As we move into a digital world with screens and phones taking over, it is the perfect time to find a new way of preserving the universal language of signage.”

Some notes from the artists about the show:
"It's befitting that we use found objects and ephemeral for this show. It is the New York City subway system and this city, because this is where this artistic movement rose to greatness from." – Eric Orr

“Colors and letters on the trains has the energy that can blissfully alter one’s life.” - Easy

Featured Artists include: AL DIAZ, BG183, COPE2, CHRIS RWK, EASY, ERIC ORR, KIT17, SKEME, T-KID, WANE COD, ZIMAD

Thank you to all the forum members that attended the Angel "LA2" Ortiz Show. It was great to meet so many of you and talk art.  
I attached some images from the show for those that were unable to attend. 
All the pieces being posted are sold, but will be displayed at Chase Contemporary until June 18th.  LA2 has begun an international media tour and you can read about him online, hear him on the radio and see him on TV.  The documentary about LA2 will be released in 2024, and it is going to completely change the narrative of what we thought we knew about the history of this legendary artist.  If you like to go to museums you can always see his art in the permanent collection of the Louvre, MOMA, Guggenheim and or the Whitney.  
Thank you - Wear
