It's perhaps one of New York 's
best kept secrets--the annual National
Museum of the American Indian's (NMAI) Holiday Art Market. This year
marks my first year attending the market, and I'm particularly excited to
have the opportunity to help out at tonight's preview party at the
Smithsonian-run facility located at One Bowling Green across
from Battery Park in Lower Manhattan on
the corner of State
Street and Broadway.
The preview (tickets available at http://go.si.edu/2013NYArtMarketPreview)
kicks off the art market that will take place Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m.
to 5 p.m.
