This is my 4th time taking the tour with Merrily. I have started to treat friends to a morning with Merrily for their birthdays and they have all been delighted with the tour Merrily pulls together. Her extensive knowledge of current exhibitions and the artists makes the 2 hours go quickly and leaves you wanting to return. I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. The Chelsea tour is located in and around the High line and close by to Hudson Yards so easy to combine several events and make a day of it

I took the art walk recommended by a friend & I can say I am very happy to have done just that. Merrily is such a sweet soft spoken person, not at all intimidating & super accommodating & friendly. Felt comfortable right from the moment I saw her. Her knowledge & research on the art & artist really helps one to understand the finer nuances of the art on display. Its a really nice ay to get introduced to the art scene here. Thank you Merrily & I would definitely recommend her!
