“The Museum's Mile Festival has long proven the lasting power of art bringing people together,” New York City Museum Director and President Stephanie Hill Wilchfort told Observer. “For 47 years, this vibrant celebration has not only evolved into a festival–it became New York City's most popular neighborhood party, with world-class museum doors open to the public and free of charge.

What is a music festival in a museum?
Music festivals in museums are not necessarily about looking at art, although the museums participating in them are definitely heavy batsmen. The event was founded in 1978 to “increase public awareness of its member institutions and promote public support for the arts”. The common culture is the order of the night, whether it’s gazing at the old masters, enjoying live music, making their own art, or just strolling (or cycling) along Fifth Avenue, a car-free twenty-three blocks, and thousands of neighbors. In most years, more than 50,000 people participated.


The museum’s miles actually cover less than one and a half miles of the city access, is Fifth Avenue from East 82nd Street to East 110th Street on the Upper East Side, marking the western edge of Mount Carnegie and the southernmost end of East Harlem. It's culture, history and no surprise money. Roosevelt, Rockefeller, Kennedy and Canegee refer to it as “area residence” once or twice. But the existence of Central Park can largely democratize museum miles, as do street vendors who open shops along the route.
