FFR/Princeton BTGALA, Cornell University GALA, Yale GALA, New York Gallery Tours & Tyler Rollins Fine Art Present... An LGBT Tour of the Chelsea Galleries and Reception! New York, NY

Join us on a gay and lesbian tour of the Chelsea galleries. Past tours have had a great crowd so don't miss this one! The art in the galleries changes continually, so this tour will be completely different from prior ones.

New York City is the world's center for contemporary art, and home to some of the finest art galleries anywhere. New York Gallery Tours' director Rafael Risemberg, Ph.D., visits over 200 art gallery exhibits each month in order to select 7 of the most fascinating and provocative ones for us to visit, in Chelsea and beyond. You'll see the very newest in painting, sculpture, electronic media and photography. At each stop on the walking tour, our guide explains the artwork and leads the group in lively discussion with a focus on art of interest to the LGBT community.

Highlights will include: (1) a gay male artist's large-scale homoerotic Dionysian fantasy scenes in mixed media; (2) brand new photographs from the most famous and important lesbian artist in human history (not an exaggeration); and (3) L.A. portraits of the gay porn scene, the fashion world and the Hollywood scene. These are just 3 of 7 exhibits we will visit that day.

As our final stop, we will visit the Tyler Rollins Fine Art gallery, where we will be treated to a reception courtesy of the gallery and its owner, Yale GALA's Tyler Rollins.

We strongly encourage you to let us know if you will attend so we have a gauge of the size of our group. Like all of our events, all are welcome, but we especially welcome LGBT alumni from the ivy league and seven sisters schools, as well as our friends from Stanford, NYU, UVA, Duke, Northwestern, and Georgetown University. Feel free to bring your friends, boyfriends and girlfriends, but let us know a count as space is limited!
