Semester Orientation
Dear Brahma to Buddha Semester Students,
Here is some important information foryou to help you plan for Orientation:
1. We will be having our pre-travel orientation at the Lifebridge Sanctuary in High Falls, NY. You can be dropped off there (any time between 3-5pm) on February 16 or if it is more convenient for you see option #2 meeting us in NYC.
If you are driving, directions are available here.
2) If you are flying into NYC you should plan to meet Brad Choyt (Education Director at the Rubin Museum of Art and Founding Director of Global LAB) at the main entrance (150 West 17th Street, between 6th Avenue and 7th Avenue) to the Rubin Museum at Noon for a special tour of the museum's Himalayan collection.
If you prefer, you can meet Brad (and the other students meeting in NYC) at the Port Authority Bus Terminal by 1pm as the group will be boarding the bus there to head up to Lifebridge Sanctuary. There are public transportation options which can bring you from JFK airport to either the Rubin Museum or Port Authority. If you are planning to meet the group in NYC and you cannot make it to Port Authority by 1pm please contact michelle@global-lab.org ASAP so we can figure out alternate arrangements.
PLEASE LET MICHELLE AND BRAD KNOW WHETHER YOU PLAN TO MEET THE GROUP IN NYC OR GO DIRECTLY TO THE PRE-TRAVEL ORIENTATION SITE (brad@global-lab.org) so we know where to expect you.
