TICKETS: Because of the unexpectedly large turnout on opening nights our first two years, we are selling limited $5 tickets to two Sneak Preview nights to minimize traffic, congestion, and the impact on the surrounding community. At least 20% of the ticket proceeds will go to the charities New York Immigration Coalition and City Harvest.
Tickets to Sneak Preview #2 available here.
