Family Programs at the Skyscraper Museum

Family Programs

The Skyscraper Museum hosts a rotating repertoire of Family Programs in which children engage with an educator to explore the principles of urbanism, architecture, and engineering through hands-on activities. At present, until Covid-19 policies are suspended, all programs will be conducted as Zoom webinars. The programs are free, but registration is required. Use the RSVP buttons to sign up and you’ll receive further instructions on links and preparing for activities.

When in-person workshops resume, they will be held at The Skyscraper Museum at 39 Battery Place. Registration is requested by Friday at 5 PM. To sign up for the Family Program newsletter, or for more information and to RSVP, email [email protected] or call 212-945-6324. Stay up to date with our Family Program Newsletter. Sign up today!

A video archive of these programs and other educational resources is available on our page LEARNING FROM HOME.
