Here is the updated NYC itinerary for Saturday July 7, with a particular emphasis on the Wiki World's Fair on Governors Island:
***11am ferry ride*** at Battery Maritime Terminal by the South Ferry subway stop (the southern tip of Manhattan), to arrive at Wiki World's Fair on Governors Island, which runs from 11am-3pm.
--You should arrive about 15 minutes beforehand, because there is a line for the ferry. --Those wishing to help with initial set-up can take the 10am ferry with the bamboo diehards. --Wiki World's Fair is located at the south of the Governors Island Parade Ground, next to the artist-designed arcade-themed mini-golf (which we will play!). Also look out for the bamboo city we'll be putting up!
After Governors Island wraps at 3pm, we'll take the ferry back and do some rambling around Lower Manhattan and possibly Brooklyn,
Thanks, Richard (User:Pharos)
Hey all,
I'll be late on Gov's Island (have a meeting first), but will get there. I heard other people also found the time inconvenient ('the italians') and will first go to MoMA and join perhaps later. Would it be possible for those that want to stay longer?
Also, for the evening I was thinking about hitting an off-off broadway production. Any tips?

10:30pm: "Too Much Light Makes the Baby Go Blind" (arrive at least 30 minutes early or buy tickets online, as it will sell out) http://www.nyneofuturists.org/ about USD 12-18

Welcome to the US, to all the early arrivals! And have fun all; I'm in Houston with family this weekend, but my heart is in NYC :-) As for shows to see -- make your way to the Book of Mormon if you can...
