NYC VILLAGE HALLOWEEN
TODAY:
After 34 years of stomping up 6th Avenue in the trippiest of Halloween get-ups, New Yorkers get the chance to come out again and participate in the infamous NYC Village Halloween Parade. The event will likely be the most chaotic of the night, in the past having boasted of 45,000 participants and 2 million spectators. (If you've been living under a rock, it really is quite the attraction, earning a spot in 100 Things to Do Before You Die: Travel Events You Just Can't Miss.) This year's theme is "Ghost!" so get creative and dress up the standard, white bedsheet and march tonight with your fellow vampires, zombies, and (probably) Sarah Palin

Robert Lehman Wing
This is a comprehensive survey—the first in this country—of the career of Giorgio Morandi, one of the greatest 20th-century masters of still-life and landscape painting in the tradition of Chardin and Cézanne. The exhibition presents approximately 110 paintings, watercolors, drawings, and etchings from his early “metaphysical” works to his late evanescent still lifes, culled mainly from Italian collections, including those formed with Morandi’s help by his friends and by renowned scholars of his art.
Accompanied by a catalogue. At Metropolitan Museum of Art NYC www.metmuseum.org
