Good Vibes on the Lower East Side: Art & Food Walk

Good Vibes on the Lower East Side: Art & Food Walk

Overview

Spend a morning or afternoon delighting all of your senses during a curated art & food walk with local art expert and event curator, Alexandra Harper.

You will take in the unique sights, sounds and tastes that make the Lower East Side such a rich and amazing neighborhood, with a focus on female-owned & run businesses. You will see some of the best visual art in the city, both indoors and out (weather dependent), munch on unique savory snacks and end with some sweet treats sure to satisfy your sugar cravings.

The walk focuses on the themes of change, creativity and diversity that make this neighborhood (and city) the unique place that it is. I will introduce you to 6-7 hidden and unique LES spots, including 2-3 off-the-beaten-path galleries, 1 coffee shop and 2 snack stops (at least 1 savory and 1 sweet), meeting the proprietors at each.

This is a great opportunity to take a deep dive into one of NYC's most diverse and fascinating neighborhoods and learn about its history.

If you are looking to five deep into the uniqueness of nyc with a rich, warm hearted diverse group of people, then women of culture’s art walks can’t be beat. I’m amazed how Alex Harper pulls this together each and every time I join her walks
