that are in all the other museums.

What’s a very unique and fun twist to your next visit to NYC’s Metropolitan Museum of Art? Museum Hack‘s Badass Bitches Tour of the Met! Not your grandmother’s idea of a museum tour, but she’ll enjoy it anyway with your mom and all your favorite women. Enthusiastic, educational and entertaining, a dynamic duo will explain art pieces by women in ways you have never known them before.
From defining feminism to incorporating untold tales of women represented in or who made the featured artworks, this tour guides you through objects, sculptures, paintings at the Met Museum that reclaim women’s rightful place in history and return our pride in the distinctive shapes of our bodies.
Without giving much away, here are a few photos and questions to get you curious about the fun difference a badass tour of the Met makes…
Outstanding women who never got their due: Who was really behind the success of Tiffany lamps and stained glass windows? (The ladies in front of it are our awesome Museum Hack guides, Mindy and Bex.)
While there are hundreds of penises on display throughout the Met, can there seriously be only three properly represented vaginas? And have you heard of the UK based sculptor whose work helps counter labiaplasty by giving women an understanding of how wide the spectrum of “normal” is in female genitalia?
A memento moment with my favorite sculpture at the Met, The Vine by Harriet Whitney Frismouth. Big thanks to Museum Hack and FujiFilm’s Instax Share SP-1 Mini digital polaroid printer.
