NYC Events 7/11: Art Battle in Staten Island; Tour the Woolworth Building

This week, we've got a well-rounded roster of events for you, spanning from sticker art to rare architecture to dance and film. Pay a visit to one of our fair city's oft forgotten boroughs and sail the high seas on over to Staten Island for Saturday's take over, which will transform Artist Alley into a festival of live art making, drinks, and music. Next week, break out the picnic blanket and catch a free summer flick in Midtown's best park, or wake yourself up with not only a coffee and fresh juice, but a raging (pre-work) dance party. Treat your architectural side to a private tour of very private sites—the newly renovated United Nations chambers or the closed-to-the-public lobby of the Woolworth building—and then finish the week off by satiating your inner modern art nerd with the contemporary abstractions of Carly Ivan Garcia.

NYC Events 6/20: Alice in Wonderland Drawing Bash; The New Museum White Party

There are some major ways to get your arty party on this week! Get weird and kick off the weekend while spurring your creativity and head to Brooklyn for Michael Alan's Alice in Wonderland themed draw-a-thon, complete with costumed models, booze and live music. Or go classic in Manhattan, break out your best whites and join the New Museum for their Annual White Party (just be careful with the open bar). But before you party, school yourself with the best in Italian Street Art, or channel your inner rocker on the Lower East Side with live music for The Cast's street party. Finish it off by indulging in an art film, with a free screening at the Tribeca Screening Room.

Your Art and Design Events Agenda, For the Week of June 6, 2014

We're welcoming the warmth of June with open arms. This week's listings are all about celebrating art in New York — indoors, outdoors, on screens in Times Square or on walls in Queens. Kick off the month with the family-friendly Figment art festival on Governors Island, or check out photographs by a rock star's kid, Mia Tyler. End your weekend by snagging a piece of affordable art at Cotton Candy Machine's annual Tiny Trifecta show, or checking out live street art in Long Island City.
