New York City: 10 Things to Do in 24 Hours
7. P.S. 1 Contemporary Art Center
MoMA is home to the modern masters. But head to MoMa's cutting-edge kid sister across the East River to see tomorrow's masters. Located in a refurbished public school, P.S. 1 consistently mounts challenging exhibitions from the world's most provocative artists. Don't miss James Turrell's transcendent installation, Meeting (seasonal, and weather permitting), and, in summer, the always-changing architectural garden. Also, on summer Saturdays, hit the early evening Warm Up session, a free weekly dance party that's become a must-stop on the city's nightlife calendar.
