Laura Rice 2/5/12 Overview: The purpose of this site is to provide knowledge and promote international art programs. The websites intended audience is for adults hoping to encourage people to seek the arts. I would also have to say this website is more beneficial to those that live in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island. They provide information about dance, festivals, film, galleries, gardens, history, libraries, media, museums, music, parks, and theaters. It also provides maps of the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island. These maps provide access to arts all around the cities. There are also a number of art lesson plans for all ages of students. This website is a great resource for information about different art programs. It is well organized making it useful for anyone that accesses it. Content: This website provides information about different organizations throughout cites. A list of things to do provides information about activities taking place in the cities such as dance, festivals, film, galleries, gardens, history, libraries, media, museums, music, parks, and theaters. The next set of links shows maps of the cities with arrows to the art locations. A calendar outlines all art activities taking place in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island. It also provides great resources for parents, teachers, and seniors.

Lynnsey Patterson January 23, 2011 Overview: The intended audience for this site is anyone interested in modern art. The Museum of Modern Art is the be all and end all for artists today and this site is a great resource for finding anything ne would want to know about the modern art scene including the artists, shows, and to see example of how different kinds of media can be used. Content: I find myself feeling a little lost on this site. There is no clear side bar , header, or footer that contains links that I would consider important. The homepage also contains several pictorial links that could be confusing. Aside from the poor organization, the site does contain very useful information about upcoming events at the museum as well as the current collection. Design: Like I said before the organization of this site is questionable but the look of it is very aesthetically pleasing and professional looking.
