Proof: Bronx Museum’s Anniversary Party Was a Smash Hit

by Whitney Kimball on October 18, 2012 · 2 comments Events

Gifninja doesn’t really convey the full force of the Bronx Museum’s 40th Anniversary party on Friday. If there was one takeaway from the event, it’s that museums should have more music. You don’t hear this level of noise at MoMA.

It was nice to see a rare show of local pride at the museum. Biennials are great, but sometimes they just don’t get people going like music and tacos.

Dude, I think you have a lot bigger things to worry about if you’re getting all up in arms about a museum throwing a party to celebrate its fortieth anniversary.
