Make a visit of it
The only museum in the US dedicated to posters. Sounds niche but the shows are knockout -- propaganda, concert posters, protest art, commercial design. The Friday free hours go until 9pm, making it a great evening activity.
After: Breads Bakery (bakery, $). 16th st near union square, 7 min walk. the chocolate babka is legendary and the line moves fast. grab a sandwich or just bring a loaf home.
