NYC Part Two

Our weekend in NYC was mainly spent in Ken Barber's Freehand Lettering Workshop which was held at The Cooper Union. Both days we had lunch close to Cooper, the first day we tried Gemma at The Bowery Hotel and on Sunday we had a quick lunch at Korilla. Saturday evening we decided to explore Central Park and had a dinner reservation at The Loeb Boathouse. We had the best weather and I loved walking around the part and to 30 Rock after dinner. After that we headed back to our Airbnb to rest up for the next day.

Sunday evening was our last night in the city and we decided to take a walk across the Brooklyn Bridge after the second full day of our workshop! It was super crowded but the views of the city were amazing. After our walk we stopped by the 9/11 memorial and then headed to dinner before a show at the Comedy Cellar. I also have to note that we had amazing breakfasts at both Juice Generation and Bluestone Lane Coffee. I'm so grateful that Hallmark sent the three of us to NYC, we learned a ton and made the most of our few days in the city!

NYC Part One

Hello, friends! Last week I had the opportunity to spend a few days in New York City and attend a freehand lettering workshop with Ken Barber! I haven't been to NYC since I was in elementary school so I was especially excited to explore the city. Here are a few photos from our first day which was free for shopping, market research, and we really made the most of it!

Our flight got in late Thursday afternoon and that night I went to Frozen on Broadway with a family friend. Beforehand we had a delicious dinner (pesto pasta!) at Trattoria Dell'Arte and walked through Times Square. Friday Livy, Meredith and I were up early and started our day with breakfast from Eataly, a few photos by the Flatiron Building, and some shopping. Our favorite shops were Fishs Eddy, Flying Tiger, and ABC Carpet & Home. For lunch we ate at ABC Kitchen, which ended up being my favorite meal of the trip! After lunch we headed to the Whitney and then took a walk on the High Line. We had dinner reservations as Blossom, a vegan restaurant. After dinner I was able to catch up with my college friend Katie at her apartment. Later this week I will recap the rest of our time in NYC!
