Saramai in New York

Sarah wears her brand new Jeremy Scott for Adidas Sneakers
My dear friend, Sarah Jane A.KA. Saramai has been spending the last few weeks in New York, in celebration of her 60th birthday. We first me in Sydney after her daughter tagged me in a photo of Sarah from her instagram page and I have been following her adventures ever since. I was thrilled to hear that she would be coming to visit America for  the first time and that New York would be her first stop. Samarai is one of the loveliest, boldest, and most outspoken women that I have ever met(Check out a post she wrote about being proud of your stripes HERE.) She is off to Philadelphia before heading on a road trip out west. Make sure to follow her adventures HERE.

Jacky O'Shaughnessy

I finally had the chance to meet model and actress, Jacky O'Shaughnessy. Jacky's career took off when she was discovered in a cafe in New York City a few years ago, leading to several campaigns for American Apparel. We had a wonderful afternoon chatting about her burgeoning career in fashion and I can't wait to see what she will do next!

Prime Time: MoMA's Older Adult Program Initiative Launches This Saturday

Ever since my mom gave me my first Claude Monet book, I have been obsessed with going to museums. I have always loved getting lost in the galleries, people watching and meditating upon an inspired work. When The Museum of Modern Art asked me to help launch Prime Time, their brand new programming and outreach initiative aimed to engage older New Yorkers at the Museum, in the community, and online, I was absolutely thrilled. To kick off the initiative, MoMA is offering all visitors ages 65 and up free admission on Saturday, May 9, from 10:30 a.m to 5:30 p.m.

The day will also feature free gallery talks, entertainment and art making workshops, including a jewelry making workshop led by Debra Rapoport and a live figure drawing session featuring Joyce Carpati, Lana Turner, Debra and Carol Markel. The museum is also offering NYC residents 65 and up 50% off admission and $25 off new annual memberships for the the month of May!

The ladies are planning their outfits as we speak, so grab all your friends 65 and up and head to MoMA on Saturday for an inspiring day of creative activities.
