Cena y baile de graduación: Un día LGBTQ+ en NYC
Publicado 12/19/2018
La comunidad LGBTQ es tan diversa y ecléctica que un día en Nueva York que abarque su totalidad sería casi imposible de diseñar. Pero siempre es fácil encontrar formas de celebrar nuestro pasado, presente y futuro a través de tres de las cosas que la ciudad hace mejor: arte, comida y Broadway.

Solomon R. Guggenheim

1071 Fifth Ave.
Make your way to the Upper East Side to catch the latest exhibit at the Guggenheim, Implicit Tensions: Mapplethorpe Now. The show focuses on the work of New York artist Robert Mapplethorpe, whose photos and collages of male and female nudes and underground S&M scenes made him a queer pioneer. The exhibit opens on January 25, nearly 30 years after his death. The Frank Lloyd Wright–designed museum also holds works by abstract expressionists and French modernists that are always worth a peek.

Chez Josephine

414 W. 42nd St.
Head down for an early dinner at Chez Josephine in Hell’s Kitchen, a neighborhood known for its LGBTQ+ nightlife. This intimate restaurant serves up authentic French cuisine with a side of live piano music. Named for Josephine Baker, the bisexual African American entertainer who doubled as a civil rights activist, it was opened in 1986 by one of her adopted children.
