Leading up to Hanksy's takeover of an old Chase bank on the Lower East Side (which he'll be hosting an art show/party in on March 28th and 29th), we're having a little scavenger hunt. Here's what you need to know...

Twice a day, from March 20th through 27th, we'll be hiding Golden Tickets along with Hanksy. Once the tickets are in place (which could happen at any point during the day), we will both post a photo of Golden Ticket in its location on Instagram (follow us @Gothamist and him @HanksyNYC). We'll also blast an alert from our Twitter, for the Full Social Media Experience.
What does this Golden Ticket get you? Well, the Golden Ticket itself is pretty cool, so stop being so greedy. It will, however, also get you your choice of one limited edition Hanksy print, and a Gothamist gift bag. If you happen to find two tickets, you will receive one print plus a hand-painted piece made specifically for Hanksy's Best of the Worst show.
To clarify: The show is open to anyone. Tickets are only for prizes, not for admission.
