Two possible venue suggestions:
1) The Paley Center for Media at the Museum of Television and Radio would make an interesting class visit. We would have access to more than 140,000 programs that cover almost 100 years of television and radio history. There is also a theater in which various elements from the collection of programs are screened daily. This would be an ideal institution to visit because it would offer a different experience than any other art museum, it would provide an interactive experience for the class using contemporary media. Our class could visit the theater and view whatever is being screened that day. Since we have visited numerous art museums, exhibits, and performances already, it would be interesting to visit an institution in which the class can gain an appreciation for media based on popular culture that we already may be familiar with.
2) Another venue that we can visit is The Asia Society and Museum (included with cultural passport). Particularly, there is an ongoing exhibit on the Arts of Kashmir. This would be quite interesting to view due to the fact that Kashmir is a region on the border of India and Pakistan whose art is heavily associated by both Indian and Middle Eastern elements. Various examples of the arts of Kashmir contain facets of three major religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam. It would be interesting to view the intersection between the three religions as displayed in the art. This would be an ideal institution to visit because Asian art is multi-faceted and quite interesting to view.
