American Landscapes, 1st floor, ongoing

These 8 are the BEST of the 24 exhibits currently running, in addition to the permanent collections. Currently, the first floor is enough for a one day experience. Plan to lunch in the basement cafe for best prices. $1.00 admission fee will provide for the day. Requested is $20.00 but not required becasue of government subsidies. Quick walk from the Lexington Avenue Subway 86th Street stop.

American Landscapes Exhibit, Lehman Wing, 1st floor- Thx AMX!
Budget Watcher Warning: Stay clear of the gift shops except for the last 2 tables of books which are 60-80% off retail.
