APRIL FOOLS! Let's turn that heart racing in shock to one racing with excitement! There is much to do and see this week, as we shake off the last of cold weather and head into spring.

More art fairs continue to pop up this week: Affordable Art Fair returns with "Affordable Art Fair NYC Spring 2014", and "Artexpo New York 2014" returns as well.

It's always nice to lend a helping hand and this week several special events are committed to supporting the arts: Metro Pictures hosts "Calarts Benefit & Auction," American Folk Art Museum opens a "Young Folk Launch Party," and Museum of Chinese in America invites everyone to celebrate spring at their "Qing Ming Family Festival."

All this and much much more lies ahead this week. Just scroll on down and find out where you will be going! ;)
