Patrick McMullan Photography Showcase

Jason Rogers and I being interviewed at the event

Jason and I were really excited to attend an event showcasing the various works of the American photographer, Patrick McMullan, at the Blue and Cream clothing store on Bowery tonight. McMullan has been a staple in the New York City scene since the 1970s, and Andy Warhol was famous quoted as saying “If you don’t know Patrick McMullan, you should get out more!” The exhibit was curated and hosted by McMullan’s son, Liam McMullan (who if you remember from our last entry, attended our fencing event). The photographs were truly breathtaking; it was like looking back into great moments of our past by seeing photographs of Michael J. Fox, Madonna, Andy Warhol and many others. Though the party was happening, Jason and I had to make it an early night, as we are getting up early to speak to children from the Boystown organization about achieving their dreams and overcoming obstacles. Boystown serves severely at-risk children through its outreach programs and has been around for 90 years serving the communities all over the country in this great cause!
