By appointment or happy accident!
We have a Google Calendar with our opening times and events here: Data Vandals Newsstand
As part of the MTA’s Vacant Unit Activation Program, the Data Vandals created a data-art gallery on the downtown 6-train platform at 51st & Lexington. When the space is open, it is a place for conversation, featuring rotating surveys, changing exhibitions, in-person events, talks, music, and a free newspaper.
Riders can share their experiences with others and build a new community in an unusual place in the city. Check out our survey results section to track how the conversation is flowing.
When closed, the outside mural details New York’s history and showcases data and facts for the 52,000 straphangers that pass by daily.
