Limited Edition Passport

Ticketholders are issued a limited-edition Passport. At each gallery on the tour, you may present your Passport to collect special artist-created stamps that will compose a pocket-size art collection. At the cocktail party after the tour, many of the originals of the artworks used to produce these stamps will be up for auction, with proceeds benefiting Friends of the High Line.

A portion of the proceeds from the event will benefit Friends of the High Line.

The New Yorker Promotion Department will donate all proceeds from the silent auction and a portion of those from ticket sales (less taxes and processing fees) to Friends of the High Line, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to the preservation and reuse of the High Line—a 1.5-mile elevated railway that runs along the West Side of Manhattan. The first section of the High Line opened as a New York City park in June, 2009, and is maintained by Friends of the High Line in partnership with the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation.
