The Metropolitan Museum of Art's people-powered block party includes live music, energizing performances, and artist-led experiences for all ages. Enjoy a fun-filled afternoon of cultural adventures—from Afrobeats and global street food to hands-on art activities—all celebrating the creative spirit of New York City.

Taking place both outside—on The Met’s David H. Koch Plaza (free)—and inside—at the Museum’s Fifth Avenue location (free with museum admission)—look for  interactive, artist-led chalk art on the plaza, art-making activities, and games.

The celebration continues inside the Museum with gallery talks with Met curators and staff members, live performances, and art-making activities for all ages.
