Wise, VA – Pro-Art is organizing an arts-themed group field trip to New York City from May 25th-30th, 2025. This educational and immersive experience will take participants through the heart of the city, offering a unique blend of history, culture, and adventure. Group members will have the opportunity to engage with the art, music, theater, and architectural landscapes of the city while enjoying the many benefits of group travel, like cost savings, safety and security, organized logistics, and a flexible itinerary allowing for solo/smaller group travel.
The estimated cost for the trip is $2450 per person for a double-occupancy hotel room. There are 16 spots available on a first come, first served basis. The price includes roundtrip airfare from Tri-Cities airport in Blountville, 5 night double-occupancy hotel accommodations in Midtown Manhattan, and admission to select museums, exhibits, and performances.
After Pro-Art’s successful trip to Montreal and Quebec City last spring, the nonprofit’s second-annual field trip is a unique opportunity for participants to delve into the vibrant culture and history of New York City while enjoying the stunning landscapes and experiences the city has to offer. The trip includes central seating to the Broadway smash hit and Tony award-winning musical Hadestown, a sunset Hudson River cruise, and visits to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Lincoln Center, St. Patrick’s Cathedral, the New York Botanical Garden, and more. Embark on an incredible journey with Pro-Art through NYC this spring!
