SDNNYC Goes to the Met: A Service Safari Experience

**Saturday, July 18th, 11:00AM-3:00 PM EDT** **SDN Goes to the Met: A Service Safari Experience** **Event Description** One of the great tools that Service Designers have in their toolset is the service safari, an exercise where a project team goes out into the wild and acts as customers to experience a product, service, or environment firsthand. The exercise helps you build deep empathy, uncover real-world pain points, and reveal gaps in your customer journey that traditional surveys or interviews might miss. On Saturday, July 18th we invite you to join us as we take a service safari to one of the crown jewels of New York City: The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Attendees will break into groups and get an opportunity to practice this research technique firsthand within the museum itself. At the end of the day we will share our findings and gather for food and drink. **About Our Guide** **Peter March** Peter is a UX and experience design leader with 15+ years shaping products for Fortune 500 brands. His design practice spans across digital and real world touchpoints, bringing UX rigor to environments like events, exhibits, and retail. He formally served as a local leader of the Interaction Design Association, and is part of the TAILORU Stitch Collective, where he helps professionals integrate AI into human centered workflows. **Agenda** * 11am - 11:30 am Introductions and activity outline * 11:30 am - 1:00 pm Field research: Exploring in teams * 1:00 - 2:15 pm Lunch; team synthesis & debrief * 2:15 - 3pm Findings share back with the full group **Address** The Metropolitan Museum of Art 1000 Fifth Avenue New York, NY 10028 **After-Party**: Dylan Murphy's 1453 3rd Ave, New York, NY 10028 First drink is on SDNNYC! **Financial Transparency & Scholarships** As a non-profit, we do our best to strike a balance between making our events available to all and ensuring we keep the lights on. For this event, we are charging $10. * If this amount is prohibitive for you to attend this event, please message [Barry](https://www.meetup.com/sdnnyc/members/267573171/) on Meetup and we’ll provide you a scholarship to this event. You can also email us at sdn.newyorkchapter@gmail.com as we may miss messages on this platform. * If you’d like to provide scholarships, please message [Barry](https://www.meetup.com/sdnnyc/members/267573171/) on Meetup and he will follow up with you. See you there :) David, Francesco, Yasmin, Cameron, Lynn, Nicholas, & Barry

WTF (Weekly Tuesday Folders)

**NEW LOCATION:** OMG NYC (Origami Meetup Group! New York City) is a group for people to come together and share in the beautiful art of Origami - an ancient art of folding various mediums, most commonly paper. The word comes from the combination of the Japanese verb oru (to fold) and the noun kami (paper). Other materials often folded are fabric, wire mesh, sheet metal, tissue, thin plastic, cardboard, and straws. We meet as a group to teach each other new models and share paper, books, and tips. This meeting is free and open to all level of folders from beginners to advanced. There will be free paper available to share. You can bring your own paper and books, so you can just show up and fold! If you have models you would like to learn, or teach, let us know and we will try our best to accommodate. OMG NYC's WTF (Weekly Tuesday Folders) meetup is now located at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Library at 455 5th Avenue. The meeting is on the 3rd floor in room 303. Registration is strongly recommended. You can go to the website [bit.ly/omgorigami](bit.ly/omgorigami) and register for the date you will be attending. Seating is limited so those who register for the event are given priority. Food is not allowed in this library except on the 7th floor. Covered drinks are allowed. The library policy for this meetup is that it is for adults only.

Inside WassonArtistry, Maker of Medieval European Weapons & Armor

Tickets: $45.25 ( incl. $5.25 fees ) (advance registration required) Click the link below to register for this event: [https://www.nyadventureclub.com/event/1991699954178](https://www.nyadventureclub.com/event/1991699954178) Did you know that most of the props you spot on your favorite medieval-themed movie or TV show are not originals? Hiding inside an industrial warehouse in Queens is a renowned artist and sculptor who reproduces historically accurate medieval weapons and armor for clients ranging from movie studios to professional re-enactors — and for the first time ever, he's ready to open his workshop doors and show us 21st-century folk what 14th-, 15th-, and 16th-century craftsmanship was really all about. Join New York Adventure Club (https://www.nyadventureclub.com/) for an exclusive tour & demonstration at WassonArtistry (https://www.wassonartistry.com/), a workshop in Ridgewood, Queens that has created high-quality reproductions of medieval European weapons and armor for nearly a decade. Led by Jeff Wasson, owner of WassonArtistry, our exploration of this new-age facility creating historically accurate old-age equipment will include: • The 101 on Jeff, and how his passion for medieval societies and Live Action Role Playing in college led him to become one of the country's most prestigious armorers two decades later • A tour of the workshop to see how a suit of armor is constructed from scratch, along with the assortment of medieval tools needed throughout the process • A close up look at the smithing process to see how armor was crafted hundreds of years ago • Hands-on opportunities with a range of different medieval equipment, from putting on different types of armor and helmets, to learning the proper technique of holding a jousting lance! Click here to see pictures from one of our last trips to WassonArtistry! (https://www.nyadventureclub.com/gallery/29953387) See you there! Categories: Tours, Hidden Spots, Arts
