Six things the Pope should do when he visits NYC

Vatican City may have breathtaking, storied art, beautiful buildings and lovely weather, but New York is the city where anything goes—and usually does. Gotham is renowned for its open-mindedness and spirit of rebellion (check out our oral history of the NYC Pride March for evidence), and Pope Francis has a rep as being something of a liberal papal trailblazer, so his visit to NYC in September strikes us as a match made in heaven. We've plotted a walk on the wild side that includes a visit to feminist art touchstone "The Dinner Party" at the Brooklyn Museum plus a delightful communal brunch.
