Good News and Reverend Paul Sladkus, All Faiths and Spiritual joins Borough President Brad Hoylman-Sigal and team for a tour, what a great museum, don’t miss it…even work by famed artist, Jean-Michel Basquiat. What a joy, thanks Brad and team.
On Friday, February 27 from 4-9pm, join the Manhattan Borough President’s Office for a Free Night at the Studio Museum in Harlem to celebrate artwork that has been inspired by Black culture. Free tickets to the Studio Museum will be first come, first served while supplies last. We look forward to seeing you there!
Note: Music for our video is by Billie Holiday, “I’ll Be Seeing You,” in our video, who was discovered in Greenwich Village, NY, and was closely related to HARLEM. BTW, Harlem is Thriving. Paul
