Museum at FIT Special Exhibits List.
Founded in 1967 to support the educational programs of
the Fashion Institute of Technology, The Museum at FIT
is today one of only a handful of museums in the world
devoted to the art of fashion. Best known for its
innovative, award-winning exhibitions, the museum also
has one of the world's most important collections of
fashion and textiles, which it collects, conserves,
documents, exhibits, and interprets for the purposes of
education and inspiration. In 2002 the museum received
the first Richard Martin Award for Excellence in the
Exhibition of Costume from the Costume Society of
America for the exhibition London Fashion. In 2005 the
museum received a bequest of $1 million from the estate
of Alfred Z. Solomon, a wholesale distributor of
high-fashion women's hats. In accordance with Mr.
Solomon's wishes, the gift will serve to create the
Accessories Collection, a new department of The Museum
at FIT. Formerly, the museum's Accessories Collection
was grouped with Costumes.
Sports Museum of America

26 Broadway
New York, NY 10004
212-747-0900
The Sports Museum of America (SmA), located in Lower
Manhattan, is the nation's first and only museum to
celebrate, under one roof, all of the sports Americans
love. Created in exclusive partnership with more than 50
single-sport Halls of Fame, Museums, National Governing
Bodies and other sports organizations from across North
America; SmA is further distinguished by our Honorary
Board of Trustees, which includes some of the most
beloved and respected athletes in all of sports.
A visit to the Sports
Museum of America offers the opportunity to discover
New York City's "new" Downtown. Following the tragic
events of 9/11, and spurred on by the area's ongoing
revitalization, Downtown (also known as Lower Manhattan)
is a must-see for residents and visitors alike -- filled
with museums, restaurants, unique and ethnically varied
neighborhoods, stunning architecture, vibrant history
and breathtaking waterfront views. Home to Wall Street,
the New York Stock Exchange and the dynamic surrounding
Financial District, Downtown also includes the
neighborhoods of Battery Park City, Chinatown, Little
Italy, the Lower East Side, Soho, and Tribeca. And much
like the City itself, Downtown boasts unparalleled
accessibility -- a robust transportation network
connects the area to every Borough and the entire
surrounding region.
