The Whitney's fall exhibition will celebrate 60 years of one of Pop Art's coolest dudes (no, not that guy) is one of our hand-picked Events finds for New York. More than 130 works—including comic-book classics and a recreated 1962 debut—will go on view this October.
Why New York? New York is the ultimate dense, 24-hour city — five boroughs of iconic skyline, world culture and neighborhood-deep diversity. The city is known for the skyline and Times Square, Broadway, museums and global food.
Good to know: Spring and autumn are ideal; December dazzles for holidays; summer is hot and humid. The 24-hour subway is the fastest way around; Manhattan and much of Brooklyn are very walkable.
