An Inside Look at NYC's Most Instagrammable Spot: Color Factory

The downtown art installation Color Factory vies for the title of New York's most Instagrammable spot. Here you'll find the perfect photo op for every color of the rainbow. The spaces here are filled with interactive activities all ages can enjoy. Worried about not getting the perfect shot? Don't be—each room has a "Photo Booth" that does the work for you, taking photos and sending them straight on to your email address. 

Although we don't blame you for wanting to snap some pictures and take some videos of your own!

Say "peace out" to your time in the Color Factory at their last exhibit: the ball pit. (This room has more to offer than the pit—make sure to stop by the booths for a snack, a gift, and your map!)

Colors meet reality at Color Factory!
