Other common symbols include animals, such as the turtle, which means good health, fertility, long life, peace, and rest. Another animal is the lizard, which signifies spirits and gods bridging the mortal and spirit worlds. They are all-in-all good luck charms but might lead to ill-omens if disrespected.

The new Independent State of Samoa was not a monarchy, though the Malietoa title-holder remained very influential. It officially ended, however with the death of Malietoa Tanumafili II on May 11, 2007. In the 20th and 21st centuries, the Maori population began to recover, and efforts were made to redress social, economic, political and economic issues facing the Māori in wider New Zealand society. Beginning in the 1960s, a protest movement emerged seeking redress for historical grievances.[58] In the 2013 New Zealand census, roughly 600,000 people in New Zealand identified as being Māori. The Cook Islands is made up of 15 islands comprising the Northern and Southern groups.

There are also little wooden Polynesian artifacts that are perhaps ceremonial artifacts or boat adornments. These figures symbolize the deceased, although the higher gods were also depicted in Polynesian religion. Maurice Leenhardt, the art historian, has perfected his analysis of the Oceanians’ aesthetic mindset; he underlines the problem the New Caledonians have in imagining a world with more than two dimensions. The ancestors who guard the entryway are stylized into a trunk reduced to a few geometrical symbols. One of the most noteworthy architectural achievements of the area is the megalithic floating city of Nan Madol. The construction of the city started in 1200 CE and would continue until European explorers arrived around 1600.

Dystopian Surrealism – The Other-Worldly Horrors of Dystopian Art

This main style of two-dimensionalism is frequently seen in the face, but also in the entire form, and occurs all the way along the migration path taken by Oceanians from southern Asia. Around 1100 CE, the natives of Easter Island began constructing roughly 900 moai. Around 1200 CE, the people of the Micronesian island, Pohnpei, would begin another megalithic edifice, Nan Madol, a metropolis of artificial islands and a canal system.

The Enduring Allure of Polynesian Design: Inspiring Creativity and Cultural Exchange

The term Polynésie was first used in 1756 by the French writer Charles de Brosses, who originally applied it to all the islands of the Pacific. In 1831, Jules Dumont d'Urville proposed a narrower definition during a lecture at the Société de Géographie of Paris. By tradition, the islands located in the southern Pacific have also often been called the South Sea Islands,[4] and their inhabitants have been called South Sea Islanders. The Hawaiian Islands have often been considered to be part of the South Sea Islands because of their relative proximity to the southern Pacific islands, even though they are in fact located in the North Pacific. Another term in use, which avoids this inconsistency, is "the Polynesian Triangle" (from the shape created by the layout of the islands in the Pacific Ocean). This term makes clear that the grouping includes the Hawaiian Islands, which are located at the northern vertex of the referenced "triangle".

The Marquesan cross is a popular design that is widely used in Polynesian tattoos. This symbol depicts the relationships between humans and also the ones they share with the gods. This symbol originates from the Marquesas language and symbolizes life experiences, birth, and rank in society. Turtle tattoos are popular and play an important role throughout all Polynesian cultures. Turtle or honu is considered a symbol of health, fertility, peace, foundation, and longevity in life. Many Polynesian cultures view tattoos, whether it be their placement, their design, or simply getting one, as a sign of rank and an important message to society.

Afio Mai! Welcome to Pasefika, Sāmoan art, Polynesian Fine Art and Design.

The designs often incorporate elements of nature, such as waves, flowers, and wildlife. Hawaiian patterns are characterized by their fluidity and the use of curved lines. These designs evoke a sense of movement and harmony, capturing the essence of the Aloha spirit. Contemporary architects are finding innovative ways to incorporate Polynesian design elements into modern structures.

Many tattoos were used as decoration to make women more beautiful, especially so that when they are dancing their legs would show their tattoos and illuminate their amazing beauty. They believed that tattoos offered protection in battle, so they would be tattooed head to toe. This is commonly done on men rather than women, who receive fewer tattoos. Also, Marquesan tattoos often were done to symbolize an event such as coming of age. They described peoples’ history of their lineage on their skin, as well as their identity within their tribe. Although we have mentioned several unique characteristics for each of these Polynesian cultures, there’s actually quite a lot that they have in common in both culture and technique.

Polynesian Turtle Clip Art

The designs were often passed down through generations, with each tattoo telling a unique story about the wearer's heritage, achievements, and personal journey. Polynesian design has become an economic lifeline for many indigenous artists and communities. By creating and selling their artwork, these artists are not only sustaining themselves financially but also promoting cultural sustainability. Supporting indigenous artists by purchasing their creations helps preserve traditional art forms, fosters cultural pride, and enables the continuation of Polynesian design for future generations.

The result of their epic journey today is a very widespread Polynesian culture that encompasses many different sub-cultural groups. These include Marquesans, Samonas, Niueans, Tongans, Cook Islanders, Hawaiians, Tahitians, and Maori. Polynesian people share similar language and cultural traits due to their shared ancestral history, also apparent in their tattooing traditions. The art form of tattoos has been a staple part of their culture across all island groups for the last 2,000 years. Polynesian design has transcended geographical boundaries, inspiring artists, designers, and creatives across the globe. From tattoo artists incorporating Polynesian motifs into their work to fashion designers drawing inspiration from the vibrant patterns, this art form has become a wellspring of creativity and innovation worldwide.

For Polynesians, there is no more significant symbol of hospitality than a flower garland around the neck. Also, you can make the flower with colored ink or make patterns in the shape of Tiari. Just turn on your imagination and find a tattoo artist who will make any custom design.

Tongan tapa, a form of traditional cloth made from the inner bark of the mulberry tree, is adorned with intricate patterns and rich symbolism. These designs are often created using a variety of tools, including wooden stamps and freehand painting techniques. Tongan tapa designs feature geometric patterns, stylized animals, and ancestral motifs, serving as a visual representation of Tongan culture and heritage. Polynesian design has made its mark on the fashion industry, with designers incorporating elements of Polynesian patterns and motifs into their collections. From bold prints inspired by traditional tapa cloth to modern interpretations of tribal tattoos, Polynesian-inspired fashion celebrates the beauty and cultural significance of these mesmerizing designs. Tatau is more than just a form of body art; it is a sacred ritual that holds deep cultural significance.

They are often received as semi-gods or deified ancestors, such as chiefs or priests. They are symbols of protection, fertility and are guardians over the wearers. An ocean design with a curved circle is significant because it represents the second home of Polynesian people. When the ocean motif is part of a tattoo, it represents life, change, and progress through change. Like other symbols used in Polynesian tattoos, turtles can also be represented in the form of a linear design – this is achieved by drawing on the shape of the turtle’s shell pattern. These designs are closely tied to the tribal cultures and traditions of Polynesian islands.

During the hour prior to curtain, the Box Office only handles business for that day's performance. Designed by Arthur Brown, Jr. in the American Renaissance style, the 3,146-seat War Memorial Opera House is a California Historical Landmark. The building has been the home of San Francisco Opera since it opened on October 15, 1932 with a performance of Giacomo Puccini’s Tosca. "This is absolutely ridiculous," said Shervin Natan, an alumni. "Students are here to go to school and obstructing students from going to class and this type of protest or encampments at the university is not a win. One professor at the university said Thursday's demonstration served as a learning opportunity.

In response to a pro-Palestinian demonstration on the University of California Los Angeles campus on Thursday, pro-Israeli supporters counter-protested the cause as universities across the U.S. face unrest due to the anti-war movement. She sang with gleaming tone and elegant line one moment, with explosive distortion and inexact pitch the next. She never really managed to float the long pianissimo phrases that define enlightened artistry in this music, and her histrionic involvement seemed minimal.

If you arrive early, make sure to walk around the hallway a little to admire the art work and décor. The historic elements are amazing and get lost in the crowd when it gets too busy. Originally built as a memorial to the soldiers who died in World War 1, in 1927 for 4 million dollars, this gorgeous structure has been turned into one of the most beloved opera houses anywhere. Known for being extremely eclectic and one of the world's best dance companies, you will be able to see performances ranging from classical to contemporary depending on the dates you visit here. Many of the best dancers, and artistic directors, from all over the world have performed and worked here.

It remains to be heard if he shares more than the name of his much revered uncle, Claudio. Hear the music, see the artists, learn the story, and more on each opera's page. There are many great resources about opera online, from overviews of the genre to what to expect during a performance. Some of the shows will not seat you during the performance so you do not want to be late.

Experience the Majestic Opera House

I prefer to head over to Hayes Valley for dinner before each performance. This district is on the western border of the Civic Center and an easy walk. You will find everything from French to German to American cuisine here. It's also a fun place to grab a drink before or after each show.

That being stated, you will want to plan ahead as they performances usually sell out and people plan for them well in advance of the shows. Something that I love about the War Memorial Opera House is that there is so many performances to see here with over sixty different performances of nine operas throughout the year. It's scheduled certain Mondays (except holidays and when there are performances on Monday nights) and leaves from 455 Franklin Street. Known for both classic and contemporary operas, it is always cutting edge and you can be sure to find something you'll love when you visit our beautiful city.

The 23–24 Season charts a new era for San Francisco Ballet, with powerful world premieres and beloved classic works that will be seen in San Francisco for the first time. The theater space is dominated by a massive aluminum and glass panel chandelier under a blue vault, and the proscenium arch is decorated with gilded figurative sculpture. The theater has 3,146 seats plus standing room for 200 behind the orchestra and balcony sections. The SF Ballet Box Office in the Opera House is open only on performance dates and opens for four hours prior to each performance.

And to have the best experience possible, give yourself plenty of time to get here. The opera house has seating for over 3,000 people and standing room for another 200 people so there is a good chance you will find just what you are looking for when you visit here. In 1927, $4 million in municipal bonds were issued to finance the design and construction of the first municipally owned opera house in the United States. The architects of the building complex were Arthur Brown Jr., who had also designed the adjacent San Francisco City Hall between 1912 and 1916, and G. Albert Lansburgh, a theater designer responsible for San Francisco's Orpheum and the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles.

Leona Mitchell, who undertook the challenge on Sunday, is not quite in the same league. Roberto Scandiuzzi, the Italian basso cantante making his U.S. opera debut as Padre Guardiano, served happy notice that the noble Neri-Pasero-Pinza-Siepi tradition may yet be alive and well. His dark yet slender tone rolled evenly from brilliant heights to resonant depths, and he commanded the stage, quietly, with well-focused, slightly bemused dignity. If you are coming from Union Square, I recommend picking up any Muni line and taking it to the Van Ness Station.

The hero at the opening, it should be noted, was supposed to have been Giuseppe Giacomini. When he canceled, Bartolini--who had been scheduled to replace him in the final performances anyway--took over the entire run. As a courtesy to performers and our audience, we don't offer late seating.

Located on the North and South side of the Lobby level (main floor). For the safety and comfort of our audiences, all parcels, backpacks, luggage, etc., must be checked. Please do not bring bags larger than what you can fit under your seat. Anything larger must be checked at Coat Check and subject to search. Get our big stories about Hollywood, film, television, music, arts, culture and more right in your inbox as soon as they publish. When Chernov, Scandiuzzi and Antoniozzi didn’t happen to be around, the time passed slowly.

From here, you will walk just about 5 blocks to get to the show. During this season the SF Opera usually has 4 to 6 operas for you to choose from when you come here. The season runs from January to May and the last performance is always on Mother's Day so it can be a wonderful way to surprise mom. It's a wonderful place to catch a show while you are in San Francisco. You will find several nice places to eat before your performance and you can easily get here on public transportation.

Delve deeper into the choreography, artists, and music that you'll see on stage and meet the artists who are creating ballet today. Multiple parking options are available within walking distance to the War Memorial Opera House. Get to the area early to make sure you give yourself ample time to park and get to the Opera House.

On June 26, 1945, the United Nations Charter was signed in the Veterans Building's Herbst Theatre by the group of 50 founding nations, following the two-month-long United Nations conference in the Opera House. Opera, symphony, modern and classical dance, theatre, recitals, plays, lectures, meetings, receptions, special screenings, and gala events all have a place and occur at the Center. The San Francisco War Memorial acknowledges that we are on the unceded ancestral homeland of the Ramaytush Ohlone who are the original inhabitants of the San Francisco Peninsula.

25 Season at a Glance

It is one of the largest performing arts centers in the United States. It covers 7.5 acres (3 hectares) in the Civic Center Historic District, and totals 7,500 seats among its venues. The artists who have performed on its stage are as legendary as the building itself. The theater hosts more than 60 performances of nine operas annually and for 85 years has been a vibrant enclave of arts, culture and creativity. During the years of Kurt Herbert Adler's general directorship, the inadequacies of the house became apparent as the season was expanded.

Zellerbach Rehearsal Hall consists of three rehearsal facilities, which can be used for a multitude of rehearsal purposes and movie shoots.[3] Herbst Theatre is housed in the Veterans building as homage to the War Memorial Opera House. The War Memorial Opera House, or the Opera House, with 3,146 seats, was built in 1932 as part of the original War Memorial Building. It has been the home of the San Francisco Opera since 1932, as well as the San Francisco Ballet. Civic Center Ambassadors wearing orange jackets will be leading a walking group to the Civic Center BART and MUNI station.

All performances by the San Francisco Ballet are in the War Memorial Opera House. The ballet was founded in 1933 and was the first professional ballet in the US. Home of the San Francisco Opera and the San Francisco Ballet, the War Memorial Opera House (also known as the Opera House) features 3,146 seats and was built in 1932. The upper floors of the Veterans Building housed the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (formerly the San Francisco Museum of Art) from 1935 to 1994. In 1980 the new Louise M. Davies Symphony Hall opened, on a site on Van Ness across the sidestreet from the Opera House, as part of the SFWMPAC complex. Visit The Ballet Shop on the Mezzanine level south side of the Opera House or The Shop kiosk on the main lobby pre-show, during intermission, and after the show, or shop online 24/7.

As guests, we recognize that we benefit from living and working on their traditional homeland. We wish to pay our respects by acknowledging the ancestors, elders and relatives of the Ramaytush Community and by affirming their sovereign rights as First Peoples. If you're attending SF Ballet for the first time, we've got you covered with helpful tips to make it an enjoyable experience. The interior contains a grand entrance hall with a high barrel vaulted and coffered ceiling parallel to the street, with overlooks from staircase landings at each end. Restrooms are located on all levels of the Opera House except on the Orchestra Level (Main Lobby).

After opening its doors to audiences on October 15, 1932, the exquisite Opera House has been home to San Francisco Ballet since its earliest days. At the time of its construction, the stage complex was the largest and most technologically sophisticated in the United States—and its acoustics among the best in the world. If you do plan to drive, I recommend arriving a little earlier. I don't recommend parking in the street here as most spots are hard to come by. Make sure to not leave anything in your car during a performance either to avoid any issues with break-ins.

Gray provides designers with a variety of shades – softer hues or bold masculine tones. Some bachelor pads may be a bit short on space, and foot room becomes a precious commodity inside these small urban apartments. Floating cabinets and wall-mounted lighting options create more room inside these compact rooms. Use vertical space to your advantage while keeping the visual symmetry and minimal style intact. The sleek lines and minimalistic aesthetic of the room effortlessly blend with the floating bed, creating an atmosphere that exudes refinement and contemporary style.

The mid-century modern design features an adjustable wooden rod in a carbon finish and brass metal hardware. The pillow is made in a fair trade environment and hand-dyed by a master artisan. Awesome way to add a pop of blue to the all-white bedding. A stylish bachelor pad is the epicenter of every self-sufficient man’s excellence, and the living room is key to making a great impression. In addition, an interesting point while sourcing upholstery fabrics is to put aside around $35 per yard for something durable and high quality.

In particular, hold back on upholstery fabrics because its possible pieces will cost more over the long haul because of tears, rips, and re-upholstery costs. In case you have no idea where to begin, don’t stress because we’ve made it simple for you. Below are the top things you should have when building your bachelor pad. Do you aspire to have a classy and refined bachelor pad in your home? Affordability is not an issue with this Elizabeth Reich creation. If you have a sofa covered in a herringbone pattern, Benjamin Moore’s Hale Navy might be a great choice for the walls.

Invest in multipurpose furniture pieces like ottomans that can be used for seating or as coffee tables. Also, choose furniture with clean lines that won’t overpower the existing decor. Your significant other will appreciate you having this awesome mirror as well. The clean simple lines are perfect for the modern bachelor pad interior design. This stylish leather club chair is the perfect accent for the modern bachelor pad.

Not only is leather furniture ridiculously soft and buttery-smooth, it’s always in style! Yet while 100% leather furniture (furniture upholstered entirely in leather) is luxe at its finest, it also comes at a higher price point than regular fabric. When it comes to a bachelor pad, the color scheme can be an important factor. You want something that feels masculine and distinct but also easy on the eyes. Adding artwork to your bachelor room design is a great way to create a focal point and add personality.

The lawsuit compelled New York City Mayor John V. Lindsay to sign an executive order prohibiting discrimination on the basis of sex in bars and other public accommodations. At 3pm the next day, McSorley’s opened its doors to women for the first time. Kirwan was not present, explaining that she did not wish to break the bar’s tradition.

Turkey wishbones

I'm always a little hesitant about ordering bar food – you just never know what you're going to get, especially from places popular with tourists — but I was surprised by how much I liked the burger. Ahead of St. Patrick's Day 2023, I wanted to visit the bar given its rich history and connection to my heritage. My grandparents were first-generation Irish immigrants who later moved to England.

h Street Bar

There are no TVs at McSorley’s and no ambient music—the only noises you’ll hear are the clinking of glasses and the muted hum of people’s conversations. Perhaps the most famous artifacts are the wishbones dangling from a gas lamp above the bar. After finishing a free meal at the bar, soldiers departing to serve in WWI left their wishbones—from turkeys, chickens, and one duck—intending to collect them upon their safe return. In 2011, a city health inspector insisted that the wishbones, encased in years of dust, be cleaned. McSorley’s is not the oldest bar in New York City—that distinction goes to Fraunces Tavern, open since 1762—although Shane Buggy, a bartender at McSorley’s, disputes this fact.

Time Out says

In a city filled with pricey craft cocktails and thousands of beers on tap, McSorley’s lack of choice—and the $5.50-per-drink price tag—is as refreshing as their light ale, which comes in pairs. John kept horses out back and his son, Bill, who eventually took over the bar from his father, was an avid reader. The two-glass policy evolved so father and son could tend to their hobbies in between pours. Health inspectors also had a problem with another McSorley’s regular—Minnie the Second, one of many cats who have called the pub home over the years.

Search The Thousand Best The expert guide to New York’s best restaurants and bars.

Prior to the 1970 ruling, the motto was "Good Ale, Raw Onions and No Ladies"; the raw onions can still be ordered as part of McSorley's cheese platter. He's also witnessed some of the greatest moments in Philadelphia sports history and served customers as they celebrated the Sixers NBA Championship, the Flyers Stanley Cup, the Eagles Super Bowl and the Phillies World Series victories. With alcohol of any sort outlawed, brewing operations switched to the basement of McSorley’s Old Ale House where it remained business as usual until Prohibition ended. After this dryest chapter in American history the Fidelio Brewery returned as official brewers of McSorley’s Cream Stock Ale.

Food and drinks – what’s on offer in New York’s oldest Irish bar

There was a strong sense of pride and camaraderie in the bar, with customers happy to let others through to the bar, introduce themselves, or tip their Irish bartenders. I felt more connected to my own Irish heritage than I have in years, and proud of the role Irish people have played throughout history in this country and in New York City. I enjoyed both the light and the dark ale, though I preferred the light, and thought they went down smoothly. When I visited McSorley's, the bar was teeming with people and there were very few places to sit.

McSorley’s Old Ale House

Above the fireplace is the McSorley’s motto “Be Good or Be Gone”, as well as a portrait of Peter Cooper, founder of Cooper Union. There have been few structural changes to the Old Ale House, the kitchen being a glaring exception. With the Supreme Court ruling of 1970 (allowing women entry into McSorley’s), the bathroom became coed.

“Good Ale, Raw Onions and No Ladies” – a former pub motto

"Every day is a blessing. I'm healthy, I feel good," Doyle said. "I met Chase Utley, Moose Johnston came in one night," Doyle recalled. "When I first started working here, I didn't know how long I'd be here. Then I got the job as a doorman, eventually, I became a bartender," Doyle said. Ah, yes, and Abraham Lincoln, who stopped by in 1960 while in town to give his famous Cooper Union address. Don’t go to McSorley’s hoping for a chilled glass of pinot, though.

At the very least, McSorley’s can claim the title of “oldest Irish pub” in the city. It’s no surprise that McSorley’s—with its green, shamrock-emblazoned storefront—is a popular destination on St. Patrick’s Day. Doyle earned a "Best of Philly" award in 2010 when he was named the city's best bartender, and his wife, Laura Doyle, said all these years later she doesn't mind sharing him with the rest of the city. As Doyle gets ready to turn 80, he's scaled back his schedule to one day a week, but he's now worked for three generations of owners, and his tenure has spanned eight Philadelphia mayors.

Above the bar, wishbones gather many generations worth of dust from their perch on the old gas lamp. Look closely and you’ll spot an original wanted poster for Abe Lincoln’s assassin as well as Babe Ruth’s farewell photo from Yankee stadium (a donation from the photographer-a regular himself). There’s plenty of that memory in the bar calling out for a focus. Plaques, unit markings, random war souvenirs carried home in some veteran’s kitbag.

He passed away just three years later, leaving the bar to his daughter, Dorothy O’Connell Kirwan. The change of hands was ironic considering that McSorley’s did not allow women on the premises at the time. Kirwan promised her father that she would not overturn that rule. She also vowed never to set foot in McSorley’s during operating hours – a promise she kept even after the establishment was forced to admit the fairer sex in 1970 thanks to a lawsuit brought about by two females who were denied entry. I could have spent hours looking at every piece of art and history, and it made me feel a sense of pride in my Irish heritage. It felt as if I were in a living time capsule, surrounded by people who were there for a great time in one of the most historic spots in the city.

That fact, in combination with my very Irish name, makes me proud of the close connection to my heritage. As well as regular New York punters, McSorley’s boasts among its clientele a who’s who of American history and culture. Former presidents Ulysses S. Grant, Theodore Roosevelt, and the aforementioned Lincoln would visit the pub when in New York. The ashes of seven different people are interred in various vessels—including a flask—behind the bar. If you’re a close friend of one of the seven, you can request that their vessel be brought out so you can continue to drink together.

As we sat there, inhaling the fug and sipping and smoking and talking about sentence structure, I would pick out one item or another and make up little stories about it. When Dorothy and her husband, Harry, passed away in 1974 and 1975, respectively, their son, Danny, inherited the bar. Just two years later, he sold it to night manager Matthew Maher, who still owns the tavern to this day. Regardless, McSorley’s asserts itself as “New York City’s oldest continuously operating saloon.”  Other Big Apple bars, like Pete’s Tavern, may assert the same exact thing, but disputing the claim seems entirely beside the point.

She noted that the beer cost only a dime per mug in 1940, and in 1966, two of the half-pints cost 35 cents. I was also surprised by how low the prices were at McSorley's compared to what I usually pay in New York City. I ordered a hamburger and fries for $10, and two beers for $8. Underneath the gold record hangs a complete collection of John Sloan’s McSorley art works.

McSorley’s has been open since 1854, and managed to stay so because, at one time, it operated as a speakeasy. The iconic mugs that McSorley’s ale is served in today are a vestige of the Prohibition era when the bar would serve “near beer” (beer with little to no alcohol content) to most patrons. When they returned from the war, the remaining soldiers celebrated by going to McSorley’s, ordering a hearty smattering of light and dark beers and taking down their wishbones. E. Cummings described McSorley's as "the ale which never lets you grow old".[30] He also described the bar as "snug and evil".[30][35] McSorley's was the focus of several articles by New Yorker author Joseph Mitchell.

All the world’s a stage: Inside the raw, raucous, and remarkable world of North American fringe festivals

John McSorley loved cats, keeping up to 18 in the bar at once—a quirk immortalized by John French Sloan in his 1929 painting McSorley’s Cats. In 2011, New York City passed a law forbidding bars and restaurants from keeping cats. Minnie was forced out and, five years later, the Department of Health closed McSorley’s for four days while they resolved a rodent problem. In 1939, when then-owner Daniel O’Connell died and left the bar to his daughter, Dorothy O’Connell Kirwan, she honored the no-women policy and appointed her husband as manager. When the bar celebrated its centennial, Kirwan had her celebratory drink outside on the sidewalk. After women were finally admitted, Kirwan declined to be the first woman served, a decision that makes more sense if you know that the first women’s restroom wasn’t added until 16 years later.

Five hidden secrets of McSorley’s Old Ale House

Since its establishment in 1854, McSorley’s sawdusted floors and tchotchke-covered walls have beckoned countless New Yorkers and visitors alike. It’s been home to presidents and poets, scallywags and scribes—and just about everyone in between. No Deliveries, you have to kick it old school and come to the pub for food and drinks.

The menu at McSorley's is limited, but they had quite a few fan-favorite menu items, from burgers and a fried-chicken sandwich to more traditional items like corned-beef hash and chili. Joseph Mitchell’s book (McSorley’s Wonderful Saloon) and his obituary from the New York Times, hangs beside a LIFE magazine feature story from 1943. You’ll also find a signed copy of Frank McCourt’s best-seller Angela’s Ashes (A gift from the author after his Tom Snyder television interview which took place in the Old Ale House). Many important 20th-century writers would also frequent New York’s oldest Irish bar, including Hunter S. Thompson, Gilbert Sorrentino, Christopher Morley, Paul Blackburn, and, fittingly, Brendan Behan. During World War I, McSorley’s offered all US troops a turkey dinner before deployment. It became tradition for the soldiers to leave the turkeys’ wishbones in the pub to be snapped upon their return.

The exit door (which was an alternate entrance during prohibition) is currently Stinky and Minnie’s (the house cats) way in and out when the crowds get too large. The spirits of ex-presidents, society figure heads, entertainers and athletes mingle with the working class, the poets and the artists — with a healthy smattering of cats tossed in for good measure! There is vastly more than meets the eye and certainly more than a single visit or even a hundred can possibly reveal. The inspiration for numerous books, paintings and poems, McSorley’s retains, to this day, a static serenity. It is an oasis in an age of disposable objects, quick fixes and attention spans that sputter and stall in short order.

I was playing in bands now, mostly punk, and that was more interesting to me than my classes or the sorry state of the world. If I got called up, I figured—well, I don’t know what I figured. A personal history of New York’s oldest bar and its military legends. An 1865 wanted poster offering a $100,000 reward for the capture of the president’s assassin, John Wilkes Booth, hangs above the bar.

He's also served then Vice President Joe Biden and many other national politicians, athletes and celebrities. The beloved McGillin's bartender is credited with being a matchmaker, saving marriages and pouring countless drinks while working at Philadelphia's oldest continually operating tavern. The Soviet Union had invaded Afghanistan the previous December and refused to leave, so Jimmy Carter had the eighteen- and nineteen year-olds go to their post office and put their names on a piece of paper. I wasn’t for it—in fact, I even put a sticker on my form that the War Resisters’ League was handing out. I was not, however, a particularly serious young man, and indeed a few weeks later when I registered for my classes at NYU I put one of those stickers on that form, too.

Many others have tried to mimic its old-school attitude and its no-nonsense approach, but none come close to the real deal. The bar regularly hosts war veterans, and some have left memorabilia behind. Patrons have gifted the bar two purple hearts, challenge coins, patches, and helmets from all eras. There’s a Civil War-era bayonet, shackles from Camp Sumter, an invitation to the opening of the Brooklyn Bridge, and an original print of Nat Fien’s Pulitzer Prize-winning photograph “The Babe Bows Out,” donated by Fien, a McSorley’s regular. Spending eternity at McSorley’s isn’t an option available to everyone.

Back then, most of the people who lived in the East Village had grown up there. Somehow, they made it back to East 7th St. It also meant that some of those ominous, unsnapped wishbones had been hung up by their brothers, their cousins, their neighbors and friends. When one guest ordered a light and a dark beer for himself and someone else, they seemed surprised when they were each handed two beers. The bartender then explained that they always give people two beers each. According to Eater, each mug holds roughly 6 ounces per glass — a US pint holds 16 ounces — which makes each drink easier to finish and carry around the bar.

Located on First Avenue and occupying the entire block between 29th and 30th Streets — the Brewery proudly carried huge billboards advertising both McSorley’s Cream Stock Ale and McSorley’s Famous Lager. In September, 1979 I moved from Port Washington, Long Island, to Greenwich Village, to be a freshman at New York University. Folk singer Dave Van Ronk also posed outside of McSorley’s Old Ale House for the cover of his 1964 album, Inside Dave Van Ronk. One of the bar’s former in-house cats even made it into the photo. Menu items are written on chalkboards posted throughout the bar and, along with the aforementioned cheese plate, typically include hash, chili, burgers, and a fried chicken sandwich. In 1864, the two-story structure that originally housed McSorley’s was renovated, expanded and transformed into a five-level tenement.

Though famous, McSorley's hasn't always been on the right side of history. According to The New York Times, women have only been allowed inside the bar since 1970, when two members of the National Organization for Women sued the bar for violating the equal-protection ordinance of the 14th Amendment. There were also no female bartenders until the mid-'90s, according to Bedford + Bowery. If the big wood bar is the heart of the Old Ale House, then certainly the coal burning stove is the soul. Perhaps the most touching piece of history in McSorley’s, however, are the wishbones hanging from a light above the bar. Before his 1910 death, John passed the pub on to his son, Bill, who later sold it to patron and retired police officer, Daniel O’Connell.

Part of the charm of McSorley's, in addition to the low prices, is the lack of choice. In a city like New York, I'm accustomed to lengthy drink menus with steep prices. I actually enjoyed the lack of choice, which made ordering fast and simple. When Business Insider's Sarah Jacobs visited in 2017, the beer cost $5.50.

The final type of Hawaii cruise is the one-way repositioning sailing, typically offered when ships are heading to or leaving Alaska.
