About this event

Lower Manhattan Cultural Council hands over its Governors Island studios for an afternoon: residency artists open their doors, show what is half-finished and unresolved, and talk about it. Getting there is half the pleasure — a short ferry across the harbour to a car-free island, the Manhattan skyline receding behind you the whole way.

Why we picked it

A rare look inside working studios rather than a finished hang, wrapped in a harbour crossing. Governors Island in late August is one of the city's best afternoons.

Free entry

Free and open to the public.
