Chelsea Art Gallery Walk
For everyone who says “January is too cold, I’ll come in the spring” this one’s for you 😉
On Thursday, January 22, we’re embracing winter the Buds on the Move way: layering up, staying cozy, and letting art (and hot infused tea) keep us warm. Chelsea galleries host free open houses every Thursday night, making this the perfect excuse to get outside without fully committing to the cold.
We’ll stroll between galleries, popping indoors often to warm up, linger with NYC’s finest contemporary art, and enjoy the simple joy of moving through the city together — even in the frigid heart of January.
We’ll meet at The Alchemy, where walkers can fuel up before the walk and return to chill after. To keep everyone toasty, we’ll have hot infused tea on hand
