When the New York City subway system first opened in 1904, it was meant to be an inviting space with beautiful ornamentation. The founders wanted an aesthetically pleasing public space for all to enjoy. Join us for a return visit with Sheila Taub to see how MTA Arts and Design is transforming subway stations to, again, be places of beauty. Learn how the art in many of the stations relate to the neighborhoods above. We’ll view the new art installations on the recently opened 2nd Ave. line, as well as several other impressive stations.
