Wolfpack: The Red Fox Emerges

Having a wolfpack is way too much fun to contain to one season. In fact this summer's wolfpack list became the go-to when the pack and I were stuck in a rut. SO, I return with a shorter, but still fun, list of things one can do in NYC when the foliage starts to change to orange hues. Remember, there are no fees to join the pack.

1. Row a boat inside Central Park (let's try this one more time)

2. Tour the Brooklyn Brewery

3. Go away somewhere

4. Go on a city tour/cruise boat

5. Watch Interpol live and relive high school

6. Go to a drive-in theater 

7. Museum Mile + visit as many museums as possible (including the Whitney)

8. Dumbo Arts Festival

9. Do it up during CMJ

10. Ice skate the night away

11. Pick some apples upstate

12. Cheer on the NYC Marathon Runners

13. Have weekend getaway in a yurt

14. Have an epic Halloween in an epic costume

15. Watch the Gotham Girls roller derby crew kick butt

16. More bike rides through the hoods is a given, especially the scenic ones

17. Travel to the Catskills (points for staying in a retro trailer)

18. Fright Fest @ Six Flags

19. Learn to swim (??)

20. Skate/Long board in Riverside Park

21. Go to Spa Castle for needed R&R after completing this list

22. See a Broadway Show

NYC: 3 Events to Scope Out

A quick post on a few #arting things you should do this weekend, if in NYC. 

1. Photoville

It's a free photo exhibition held in Dumbo. It showcases talented photographers of all different genres and from all over the world. I went last year and it left me mesmerized. If you have one day free during the weekend I recommend doing Photoville first and then interacting with the Dumbo Arts Festival. You can read last year's post on Photoville here.

2. Dumbo Arts Festival

Another free #arting event. The DAF is by far my favorite of all the art festivals, one weekend Dumbo is tech central and the next it's a wonderland. Lots of great interactive pieces and sculptures. The whole thing is awe-inducing and makes me hope that next year they'll extend it for one more day - it's that good. Read last year's post on DAF here.

3. Jeff Koons: A Retrospective @ The Whitney

I can not stress it enough. You MUST visit the Whitney before it closes and experience Koons in the flesh. It's even a great space for an Instagram opp. Koons, an American artist, turns banality into lustrous pieces of arts. I'm a lover of contemporary art and sculpture so if I miss this I'll hate myself forever.

The Wolfpack: August Update

Thankfully, lots of beach trips were made this month. Also note to self, must create a shorter wolfpack list for next summer. Since summer isn't over until the 21st might as well keep this wolfpack going. I'm even contemplating creating a shorter list for the seasons of fall, winter, and spring. If you're looking for fun NYC things to do during those seasons let me know and I'll start creating one for fall. 

3. Go to a baseball game

Sorry too dark for pics during this one vv
16. Dance it out at Summerstage + Celebrate Brooklyn!

24. BEACHES! At least 25 times BEACHES

27. MUST watch the summer screenings with friends (WHAT A VIEW!)

30. Bike rides through the hoods is a given, especially the scenic ones

Pretty active August to make up for the lack of fun in July. Ughhh, can I please haz six more months of summer!? Well, regardless,  follow for more wolfpack realness on Instagram (@thestyleboro).
