Jantar e um baile: Um dia LGBTQ+ em NYC
Publicado 12/19/2018
A comunidade LGBTQ+ é tão diversificada e eclética que um dia em Nova York abrangendo toda a sua vida seria quase impossível de projetar. Mas é sempre fácil encontrar maneiras de celebrar nosso passado, presente e futuro por meio de três coisas que a cidade faz melhor: arte, comida e 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.
