Thanksgiving in N.Y.C November 19, 2013
What are you doing for Thanksgiving? There is lots to do in New York City around the Thanksgiving holiday.
Black Friday. The day after Thanksgiving. Regarded as the as the beginning of the Christmas shopping season. Aside from the chaos, you will find unique offers from retailers! Almost every store has something that interests every one. There are also Black Friday deals available online.
Why it is called Black Friday? Closest reason as to why it is know as Black Friday is given in Wikipedia – “Many retailers report some of their highest profits on Black Friday. The black portion of the name, “Black Friday” relates to businesses recording their losses in red ink and gains in black. This tradition lives on in modern accounting software, hence the name.”
Catch a Broadway show. If you’re interested in the theatre arts, why not catch a show on Broadway, something New York City is widely, and especially known for. Get lost in the magical moments of make-believe. Star-studded moments will be experienced for sure. Some of the shows available around this Thanksgiving time will be: “A Chorus Line,” “Avenue Q.,” “Chicago,” “Les Miserables,” “The Phantom of the Opera” or “Spring Awakening” [source: Playbill].

Broadway Fact: In all, there are 40 Broadway theatres. Despite the title, only 4 theatres are actually located on Broadway.
Special Exhibits. The Met, the MoMA, the Guggenheim and probably about every other museum in the city, are closed on Thanksgiving Day, but why not visit over the weekend? There are, however, a few museums that will be open. The National of The American Indian, for example….why not visit? The museum will be running special Thanksgiving-themed films continuously.
