Excursão a pé multimídia do Harlem Renaissance
Descrição
Visite pontos turísticos no Harlem referentes aos dias culturalmente explosivos do Harlem de 1920, quando a arte e a cultura eram usadas como uma ferramenta para afro-americanos e negros definirem sua própria auto-imagem, redefinindo, assim, como o mundo via pessoas de cor nos Estados Unidos.

Itinerário
Terminamos a turnê no Apollo Theatre, conhecido mundialmente por sua lendária vitrine Amateur Night todas as quartas-feiras no início da noite. Com isso, entramos para ver a área da loja de presentes, mas o teatro para passeios está atualmente fora dos limites devido ao COVID 19.
O Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture é a instituição preeminente de pesquisa e preservação da história em toda a diáspora negra. A instituição arquiva mais de dez milhões de itens referentes à experiência negra. Geralmente há uma exposição dentro da instalação para visualização pública. Este é o lugar onde nos encontramos para o passeio antes do passeio de 2 horas do Harlem Renaissance Multimedia Walkng.

The tour guide never showed up and didn’t advise that tour was canceled. I also messaged them the day before and they never responded.
Our tour guide was absolutely knowledgeable about his neighborhood. We appreciated hearing about his personal experiences living in Harlem. Meeting up with local residents was a plus. The tour, however, was not quite the Multimedia Harlem Renaissance tour I expected. First, there was no media except for photos on his phone. Second, I was hoping to learn more about the Harlem Renaissance, its important participants and its impact on NYC and on the country. We got a small taste of this info but I hoped for a deeper dive. It was a fun, interesting tour but not as academic as I wished for.
We had a Saturday tour booked thru Harlem Heritage. An hour before, our tour guide texted to say something came up and he would not be able to make it, leaving a lobby-full of disappointed people. But more disconcerting was the lack of correspondence regarding a refund. Neither the tour guide or the office responded to my inquires regarding a refund of the $80 we paid. I ended up having to go thru my credit card company to resolve the issue. That is far from professional.
Wow. Neal is a knowledgeable, passionate, and animated educator. My whole family really enjoyed this tour. Neal took us through history from the 1600s, when Harlem was home to native people, up to the recent decades of hip hop where stars rose literally from the streets of the neighborhood. Most of the tour centered around the Harlem Renaissance - Neal took us to many of the most famous landmarks throughout including the Apollo. I've been in New York for 2 years and this was a really great way to learn a lot about the significant role Harlem played in New York history.
This was truly a lovely day. We felt like we were walking around with the mayor of Harlem. His knowledge and enthusiasm is a beautiful thing.
We loved it and highly recommend it! Plus our tour group ran into two local celebrities, and our super tour guide introduced us, told us why they were each historically important and seamlessly wove their stories into the wonderful Harlem history he was telling us about.
Great tour with Neil as guide. With his impressive personality he told many stories from the founding days to today. Highly recommended
Positive points: The guide was very good, interesting and passionate Negative points: shortened visit, due to an annual event: Event in the neighborhood on the day of our visit. We only visited 3 streets, the visit program was not carried out. The guide was aware of this and offered a refund which he had to request. Still waiting.
The tour did not take place! No one came forward! It’s a scam! How to get a refund??
Awesome tour, very informative, we had a great time learning all about the history of Harlem. My son was able to play in the park and said he now feels like he’s a local.
