To Do: Visit the Morgan Museum

What: The Morgan Museum

The Morgan Library & Museum, occupying a newly enlarged, midtown Manhattan campus designed by renowned architect Renzo Piano, houses one of the world's greatest collections of artistic, literary, musical, and historical works. Included in its holdings are original scores of Mozart and Beethoven, drawings by Rembrandt and Rubens, medieval and Renaissance works, three Gutenberg Bibles, literary manuscripts of Dickens and Twain, and five-thousand-year-old Near Eastern carvings.

Proposed Date: May 4th

I am especially interested in:

Gallery Talk
Apocalypse Then and Now
William M. Voelkle, Curator of Medieval and Renaissance Manuscripts
Friday, May 4, 6:30 p.m.
Tuesday, June 5, noon

If anyone has any suggestions on things I shouldn't miss at the Morgan, or ideas for things to do in that area, leave me a comment!
