NOTES:

Most of the art and design fairs will have special events throughout the day, particularly NADA, ICFF, and Frieze. At the Randalls Island venue, the most interesting presentation is a talk at noon by Paul McCarthy and Leigh Ledere with Chrissie Iles.

Many museums are having reduced or even free admission for Art Museum Day; the day of participation varies by museum, depending on schedules. For information see https://aamd.org/our-members/from-the-field/art-museum-day-2015
