Montclair Hotel Offers Free Drink If Guests Beat Their Scavenger Hunt

MONTCLAIR, NJ — A hotel in Montclair is challenging visitors to channel their inner detectives with an art-themed scavenger hunt. The prize for those who succeed? A drink on the house.

The MC Hotel at 690 Bloomfield Avenue recently launched a unique scavenger hunt for its guests, who are taken on a self-tour throughout the property, including “the Mark,” a gallery that is open year-round.

People who successfully complete the hunt will receive a signature drink from the hotel's Allegory bar. See Related: MC Hotel In Montclair Brings New Chef, Menu To The Table

The scavenger hunt spotlights nature-themed work from five local artists:

• “Shangri La” by Siona Benjamin
• “Daisy Chain” by Delphine Hennelly
• “Columnar Potpourri” by Joshua Araujo
• “Pearl” by Barabara Syrenka
• “Isabel” by Isabel & Ruben Toledo

“It's exciting to see this unique initiative taking shape right here in Montclair,” said Siona Benjamin, a featured artist of The MC's permanent collection.
