MCNY 100 Family Day Celebration

Join the Museum of the City of New York to celebrate their 100th birthday with a fun-filled, family-friendly party! Whether you are 3 or 103, drop-in activities throughout the day bring something for ages to enjoy. Registration recommended.
Activities include:
Silent Disco Party: Get on the dance floor for this kid-friendly silent disco! Presented in partnership with Bazinga.
Storytelling: Join in for a special edition of Storytime @ MCNY and learn about NYC stories from the past 100 years. Story hour will begin at the top of each hour.
Arts and Crafts: Throughout the building, children can participate in arts and crafts activities inspired by art on view in the Museum – from tote bags to puppets, party hats, and so much more!
Chalk the Block: Play hopscotch on Fifth Avenue sidewalks.
Double Dutch: Inspired by the work of artists John Ahearn and Rigoberto Torres, we will feature Double Dutch performances on the terrace from 12-2 pm with opportunities for all to take a turn!
Kids’ Guide: Gather the family and friends for an interactive engagement by picking up a copy of the kids’ guide to accompany our Museum’s centennial exhibition, This Is New York: 100 Years of the City in Art and Pop Culture.
Part of a full-weekend of celebrations in honor of the Museum’s centennial.
