SUMMARY:On this Day: Met Cloisters Opening
DESCRIPTION:On This Day: The Met Cloisters Opens – May 10\, 1938 \nOn May 10\, 1938\, the Metropolitan Museum of Art celebrated the grand opening of The Met Cloisters\, a museum dedicated to the art\, architecture\, and gardens of medieval Europe. Located in Fort Tryon Park in Upper Manhattan\, the Cloisters offers visitors a unique window into the past. \nJohn D. Rockefeller Jr. was instrumental in the museum’s creation\, funding its construction and the acquisition of the land. Architect Charles Collens designed the building\, drawing inspiration from various medieval monasteries in France and Spain. The museum integrates architectural elements salvaged from medieval structures\, creating an immersive space that evokes the Middle Ages. \nThe Met Cloisters houses over 5\,000 works of art from the 12th through the 15th centuries\, including the famed Unicorn Tapestries\, medieval manuscripts\, sculptures\, and illuminated texts. Its meticulously maintained gardens feature plantings inspired by medieval herbals and manuscripts\, offering a tranquil escape from the bustling city. \nEighty-seven years later\, The Met Cloisters continues to be a cultural treasure\, attracting art enthusiasts\, historians\, and nature lovers from around the world. It remains a testament to Rockefeller’s vision of preserving history and the timeless allure of medieval art.

SUMMARY:Forest Fitness
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a free\, year-round “Fitness at the Fort” exercise program on Tuesdays\, Thursdays\, and Saturdays! \nThis fitness class incorporates climbing multiple staircases\, stretches and strengthening exercises\, notable tree identification\, and forest bathing. Led by instructor\, Nancy Bruning\, BA\, MPH\, PAPHS. \nClasses are structured so that all levels of fitness will be accommodated; however\, all classes involve relatively brisk walking and some stairs because of the layout of the park itself.

Saturday class ends at the Anne Loftus Playground\, using the various pieces of equipment\, and offers optional after-class group walk to the Greenmarket on Isham Street. All classes end with closing with stretches. \n(Note: Fitness Walking does not meet if it is raining or if the actual temperature or wind chill is below 20 degrees F.)
