How do you get to the High Line?

Tomorrow, a group of eighth-grade students from the Lab School [3] will be leading the way... in brightly-colored "chalk shoes." Brooklyn-based artist Julia Mandle [4] will lead student performers through the streets of the Meatpacking District and Chelsea, in a performance commissioned by Friends of the High Line. As the students shuffle through the neighborhood on their platform-height "chalk shoes," they will leave a green path on the sidewalks that will lead to the High Line's future access points.
The weather promises to be gorgeous, so stop by the neighborhood between 12:30 and 1:30 pm, and check out the performance. Or, come to the Leo Kesting [5] Gallery, where the Chalk Shoes will be on display with a video of the performance. The exhibition will be on display from May 15th-21st, during Meatpacking District Design Week [6].
