Friday Morning Book Group - All the Beauty in the World: The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Me by Patrick Bringley

Friday Morning Book Group - All the Beauty in the World: The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Me by Patrick Bringley In-Person

Millions of people climb the grand marble staircase to visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art every year. But only a select few have unrestricted access to every nook and cranny. They’re the guards who roam unobtrusively in dark blue suits, keeping a watchful eye on the two million square foot treasure house. Caught up in his glamorous fledgling career at The New Yorker, Patrick Bringley never thought he’d be one of them. Then his older brother was diagnosed with fatal cancer and he found himself needing to escape the mundane clamor of daily life. So he quit The New Yorker and sought solace in the most beautiful place he knew.
