Visiting New York City’s great museums can be anything but peaceful, but on the first Wednesday of each month the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) offers a uniquely tranquil opportunity to mindfully experience their artworks. MoMA opens three hours early for those lucky enough to snag tickets online and allows visitors to silently tour select galleries. Then at 8:30 AM there is a guided meditation for 30 minutes led by guest meditation teachers. To learn more and to reserve tickets click here.
