ello Guvner! Governor's Island opens today! Take a free ferry ride over and check out the art exhibits, art performances, artist-designed miniature golf and miles of beautiful biking. I was on the island last year biking with my own but you can rent bikes on the island as well. This year there's 500 bikes to rent!
Music is also as free as the ferry. On the fourth of July She & Him and Roseanne Cash are playing. There are plenty of concerts of the non-free variety including MIA, Passion Pit and a Make Music’s New York’s Punk Island concert on June 20 that will feature dozens of bands throughout the day.
