Join us on a tour that celebrates the vibrant art district of Chelsea, from the High-line to the galleries, with an artistic, architectural, and historic point of view.

This two hour tour focuses on world's most exciting art scene, home of the very best in contemporary art. A walk on the High-Line reveals a rich program of public art, made by acclaimed artists. We will focus on selected works, along with the park's history, design and the architecture around. We will also walk over the gallery quarter of NYC, located just below. We will visit some the most talked about shows on display, and uncover the stories behind the scene, artists’ biographies, work methods and different interpretations.
