 ?? sometimes?*CIG organizations may have special relationship with NYPD post Pulse shooting? More research needed. /// *CIGs have no automatic NYPD relationship. Other than the complications of additional city funding and property ownership. Most NYPD officers are unware of what CIG status is. CIGs still pay NYPD fees and violations. *** CIGs meet regularly (weekly?) as a group - could this issue be raised by representatives to the group as a whole? CIGs started a daily call for NYC cultural orgs at 3pm. Over 100 participants on each call

Museum of Modern ArtYESI was told contract began in 2015. NYPD stationed in each lobbyanon source: "apparently senior staff is concerned about the growing sentiment among moma staff for the museum to divest from the nypd and their current line is that "it's a class issue" because many moma security officers have friends or family who work for the nypd" ALSO in an Instagram post, Moma curator Thomas Lax proposed that "museums can commit to ending contracts with the NYPD" and "museums that receive public funding from the CIG can pressure the major to defund the PD" and that "any other work is at best a delay" https://www.instagram.com/p/CA3LQ_3F5el/

Metropolitan MuseumYES (as CIG?)Some people are internally trying to gather information on this from senior leadership // the museum has increased visible presence of police on Met steps due to footprint in Central Park and concerns over terrorism: at security intro meeting we were told to expect to see armed men patrolling outside the museum at random. The Met also works with NYPD for logistical issues, such as anything that might require Fifth Avenue blocked off (e.g. Mutu installation on facade). not sure if relevant/helpful but a chapter in Danny Danziger's book Museum (2007) focuses on James Moran, an NYPD officer--here the exact nature of museum/PD ties is unclear but still reveals NYPD involvement in daily operations b/c of the Met's status as a municipal building. // (eh: source tell us that the Met's security staff receives training and assistance from the NYPD, specifically training on how to handle protestors)
7
Lincoln Centeras CIG?Sue Bick is the chief security officer at Lincoln Center and she is former NYPD. Looking into whether or not there are direct contracts.
8
GuggenheimConcerned from Guggenheim staff who are looking into this
9
Whitney MuseumNO according to spokespersonapparently Whitney staff have been inquiring into the issue of nypd contracts and are getting no info -- (I emailed their head of security to see if the Whitney would make a statement - Ed H) /// the Whitney answered my query with this statement: "Thanks for checking in with us. Your note to our director of security was passed to me to answer. We have no contract with the police." /// (Asked Comm Dir at Whitney to clarify: "the Whitney has never hired any NYPD officers and we have not paid to use the NYPD to provide any service at the museum." - Ed H)Lobby closed; plywood currently on windows; first spotted on last Wed (jun 3); not sure when first installed
10
New MuseumNOThe director of NEW INC was asked about this and asked at New Museum and confirmed that there are no contracts, not even with off duty officers for security. No public statement though. Also, Lisa Phillips brings an NYPD tote bag to the office
11
BAM (Brooklyn Academy of Music)as CIG?Was told after 2016 Pulse shooting, NYPD given "free reign" over CIGs; shared story of cops in night vision gear patrolling BAM theatres in preparation for new role.
12
Brooklyn MuseumNO / as CIG?According to staffer, who inquired with the director, BK museum does not have a contract with NYPD, but police typically show up to First Saturday program due to # of people in attendance (about 10k [FACT CHECK: museum often has well over this amount in breach of fire code] ). Museum does not ask police to come to these events. // In Jan. 2017, De Blasio and Dermot Shea hosted a press event on crime stats from 2017 in the lobby, fit with a fake "exhibition" curated by NYPD. It was before the Museum was open to the public, so presumably a rental event? Full transcipt found here.Lobby is open for protest support
