The Arts in New York City

On the search for an experience of the arts, I decided to attend a tour of the Robert Lehman Collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. My tour guide was an elderly woman in her 60s named Phyllis Rodman. At the sight of having an old woman as a tour guide, I began to worry about the possibility of the event being as boring as a history lesson rather than as interesting and engaging as the theater performance of Spring Awakening. She even said to us before she began the tour, “You can leave at any time if I am not engaging.” To top things off, everyone else in the group was middle-aged or older. The tour was supposed to be only an hour long, so I decided to just go through with it. (more…)
