All for The Love of Ice-Cream!
All for The Love of Ice-Cream!
It’s a beautiful idea that will take people straight back to their childhood! A museum called ‘Museum of Ice Cream’ is opening in New York, an ideal place for ice-cream lovers where they can swim in a pool of rainbow sprinkles that are not edible, sample edible balloons and explore an immersive chocolate room. One can also ride on the ice-cream sandwich swing and the ice cream scooper see-saw. For the occasion, Tinder, the dating app has created Tinder Land and will help people find their true flavour match.
Founded by Maryellis Bunn who has long dreamt of creating an ‘interactive ice-cream wonderland in New York City’, the museum is all set to open at 100 Gansevoort Street-in the heart of the city’s Meatpacking District, just steps away from the High Line on July 29 and will be open till August 31.

The Museum is also going to have some interactive activities, featuring something like Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. The exhibition has been curated by a team of ice-cream loving designers and artists, including the London-based ice cream sculptor Anna Barlow and a dozen artists from Brooklyn gallery, Apostrophe NYC’s Base 12 pop-up.

They also have a scoop of the week line-up, which has some of the city’s best ice-cream shops including OddFellows, Black Tap and it will give people another reason to return every week. Free admissions are allowed on the day of its opening from 11am to 3 pm. The museum will remain open from 11am to 9 pm from Monday to Saturday and on Sundays it will close an hour earlier. The single scoop solo ticket will cost US$ 18 and double scoop package will be worth US$ 30.
