When you’re in New York City during the summer, there are a million places to go for special events and exploration. Many of them involve being outside: outdoor concerts, plays, street festivals orparades, but these activities can be tainted by New York’s scorching heat and humidity. The unpleasant smells and heat that prevail in the NYC summer air make some days better spent indoors. Here is a list of indoor art exhibitions to see in New York on those hot summer days or just when you want to get inside an air-conditioned space!

Björk—The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA)
March 8-June 7, 2015

You can go to the MoMA to see this exhibit on the acclaimed singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Björk. It is a compilation of over 20 years of Björk’s avant-garde projects and music, through a diverse form of presentation: sound, visuals, film, instruments, costumes and objects. Björk has had eight full-length albums. One floor of the museum also offers an interactive, location-based audio exhibit of her albums, accompanied by a biographical narrative.

Fans would be excited to see Björk’s work in a museum. “I love Björk and her body of ethereally weird, creative music and performance. This exhibit is a way to see the curated evolution of her artistic process,” Anastasia Bez, Fordham at Lincoln Center School of Professional and Continuing Studies (PCS), ‘16, said.

Location: 11 W 53rd St. New York, NY 10019
Admission Price: $14 for full-time students with ID; free on Friday evenings from 4-8p.m.

Matthew Weiner’s Mad Men—Museum of the Moving Image
March 14-June 14, 2015

If you’re a fan of “Mad Men,” a critically acclaimed AMC television series that’s in the last half of its final season, this is the perfect exhibit to check out. Considering that it will be over before summer begins, you will have to make time for this one soon. Go to Astoria, Queens to see portions of the Mad Men set, such as Don Draper’s office, costumes, advertising art, video clips and more.

“I would say that as a theater design major, it is really fascinating to see something from TV dissected. ‘Mad Men’ is such an iconic period show, and it is incredible to see the set and costumes in real life and to see the work put into the entire production,” Katie Ryan, FCLC ‘16, said.

Visitors also get an inside scoop on the making of the show through a viewing of personal notes and research material created by Matthew Weiner. An Evening with Matthew Weiner and a series of films that inspired “Mad Men” will also accompany the exhibition.

Location: 36-01 35th Ave. Astoria, NY 11106
Admission Price: $9 for students with ID; free on Friday evenings from 4-8p.m.
