While Notturno is by invitation, a code from the house is asked for when you confirm. No invitation yet? Request one.

Who it is for

Repeat New Yorkers and gallery regulars who would rather spend three afternoons in three institutions than ten in a guidebook.

Held for Members and Patrons. How standing works

Ocean plans Gallery week around your dates, and nothing is booked until you confirm.

Nothing is charged until the trip is confirmed. Ocean is an AI concierge.
