Step into history and immerse yourself in the extraordinary life of Belle da Costa Greene, one of the most influential women in the world of rare books and manuscripts!

On Saturday March 1st, you’re invited to join us for an exclusive, privately guided tour of the stunning Morgan Library & Museum in honor of the current exhibit — Belle da Costa Greene: A Librarian’s Legacy — which unveils the untold story of a trailblazing cultural icon.

Greene was a force of nature—brilliant, bold, and determined to leave her mark. As the first director of the Morgan Library, she built one of the most esteemed rare book collections in history while carefully concealing her true identity in a segregated America.

This intimate tour led by crowd-favorite, Helen Lee, will explore the museum’s permanent holdings through the lens of da Costa Greene’s legacy and unparalleled influence on the literary world, in preparation for a self-guided exploration of the special exhibit itself.

Before the 2:30 pm tour, Art-full members are invited to connect with fellow attendees over a delightful brunch at 12:30 pm at La Pecora Bianca in Bryant Park.

Inclusions: all tickets include entrance to the museum + the guided tour. Full experience tickets for Art-full members also include 1 brunch entree + 1 non-alcoholic beverage + tax/tip at brunch.

All additional food & drink must be paid separately on-site to the event host.
