We want you to get to know a bit of New York history, New York culture through our amazing exhibits and galleries. And then they made an incredible journey, hovering over New York, ”says Megan Doran, manager RISENY.

We have the original props from the Hamilton show. All in all, unique and wonderful artifacts to tell and show the history of the city,” says Doran.
